Thanks to everyone for understanding the decision to postpone the Harsens Island trip. It was evident by 10 AM that the right decision was made by Bob Williams. The postponed trip will take place this Friday. We will be mixing cars with busses, if you would like to come and can drive children please let us know.
Math groups are underway and will take place each day at 10:40 in the morning. Homework will come home each night Monday thru Thursday on most days. You will be contacted regularly by your child's math teacher. If you notice anxiety or other issues at home please let us know right away. There are times when adjustments need to be made.
The students have been working on questions to ask each other for student to student interviews this week. The students will be in charge of interviewing a classmate, recording the information, and presenting what they found to the class. It should be interesting to see what we learn about each other.
On Thursday we will be enjoying a day of library appreciation. We are going to spend the morning working around the stage on different projects, including, creating a story, decorating a reading pillow, making bookmarks and much more. The morning will culminate with an assembly in the CCB and a story from Dan Jacobs. Each student has been asked to bring a used book for donation to the book sale if possible. Please do not feel obligated.
Some clarification is needed on the Sukkoth celebration in October. We have come to see this as a sort of pot luck over the years but completely understand that many of you work and can not come to school at 3:00. Please know that school will end that the normal time for children who can not stay and we will make sure they get to the appropriate places. We always make sure that students who can't stay a little later are allowed a chance to participate in a way which lets them know they are included. We will be sure to discuss this with the children before the event.
Thank you and enjoy the week,
Scott and Dee
