Thank you for the many contributions towards the Booster Run. The money provides many hands-on opportunities for the children. The students have also experienced team work and learning character traits.
Please check my Blog for websites that are helpful for improving your child’s, reading, writing, spelling, and math skills. The children think of these as games, which can help motivate them to improve. There are several math sites that help with math facts. An objective for 2nd quarter is 25 mixed (addition & subtraction) problems in 3 minutes.
Please return all library books by Monday morning. If your child returns the book on Friday or before the due date, they will be allowed to check out a new book.
Shout -Out for Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Daws, Mrs. Nardulli, and Mrs. Rennie, for all the many hours they give our class. Also, thank you for sending in all of the “craft” materials for our “center” time on Friday. The children had a wonderful time.
Once again, your children are growing so quickly. If there is ever a question, call me. 770-330-6033. I know you want the very best for your child, and so do I.

It is hard to believe that we are ready for our first report card. They will be issued at your conference.
I have confirmed 99% of the schedule. Please contact me if there are any changes. The school is on an extremely tight schedule. There is time for 20 minutes for each student. Please send in questions or concerns in advance so that I can use the time to your best advantage.

My computer driven Scholastic book order did not work out this month. We will try again after the Book Fair. The Book Fair will be held during Conference Week.
Shout -Out for Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Daws, Mrs. Nardulli, and Mrs. Richa for all the many hours they give our class. Also, thank you for having your child prepared with transportation notes and homework. Thank you for being so conscientious about signing daily reports, reading logs, and behavior charts.
The children love their “garden” and their “Mr. Bones” bird feeder. Be sure to ask them about them.
