PTO will host a special event for all students!

This amazing event will include hands-on learning, exploration, and fun. *More to come! 

Reading in the DARK!

We are reading in the dark on Friday! I have a flashlight for every student, however, if they would like to also bring in an additional one, headlamp or lantern, they can!
I am also having the kids bring in a blanket, or two, if they want. How can you not build a fort on a day like this?!
All items they bring in need to be in a bag and fit into their locker when we are not using them.
All of which we have already discussed.

Way to GO!

We are closer to the top for fundraising!! Almost to the number one spot!!
Students are reading maniacs!! 18, 983!!
Awesome job on minutes!

 TOTALLY OPTIONAL

Following our conversation at conferences. The students came home, on Monday, with their first round of completely optional homework to do throughout the week.
Practicing their facts will help with their subtraction fluency up to 20.
We all talked today about a variety of ways to complete the page.
- Do it in chunks throughout the week
- Time yourself and do multiple times. See if by the end of the week you can make it to the end in a minute!
- Have someone quiz you
This does not need to come back to me unless the kids want to show off their subtraction skills.
Thank you for your continued support at home!
