Important Announcements:
*Happy Thanksgiving! I am thankful for wonderful students,
supportive parents, and a fantastic school year so far! I hope you all have a safe and fun-filled
Thanksgiving weekend. I am planning on
going to my sister’s house in Fishers and preparing the Thanksgiving feast for
most of our extended family. Whatever
your plans are, I hope that you enjoy!
*Congratulations to Charlie
and Anna! These children leveled up on
the super-improvers wall in the classroom.
Students earn stars by showing improvement in academic and behavioral
areas. Once ten stars are earned, a
child levels up to the next level. Way
to go, Charlie and Anna!
*SRI reports are printed and
have been sent home with your child today!
*We did take our reading test
today on the computer. After reviewing
the overall scores, I have decided to NOT put it in the gradebook. However, I still did send your child’s score
home with him/her today.
*On Monday, I will be sending
book order forms home. If you would like
to purchase books for your child, please fill out the order form(s) and return
it with a check made payable to Scholastic by Friday, December 5th so
that the books will be back in time for Christmas Break. You can also order online. Use the code: GVCWL when ordering online at www.scholastic.com/readingclub. This is OPTIONAL. Also, if you want to purchase books for
Christmas presents for your child, make sure to include that in a note to me
(or e-mail) and I will notify you when the order is in so you can pick it up
instead of me sending it home with your child.
*Continue to work on addition
and subtraction math facts. Make sure to
use those fact triangles that were sent home, or you can practice for free
online at www.xtramath.org. Let me know if
you need the log-in information sent home again.
*If anyone is able to come in
and volunteer next week, send me an e-mail and let me know what day and time
works best for you! Thanks!
*The church I attend, The
Blended Church, is one of the sponsors of Fox 59’s Pack the Pantries. If you are interested in donating canned
goods and other food items, but don’t want to drop it off at one of the sites,
please feel free to send it in with your child, and I will be more than happy
to deliver it for you.
*I believe in building relationships with the children both
inside my classroom and outside the classroom.
If your child participates in any extracurricular activities (sports,
dance, theater, etc.), or has any other events that he/she would like to invite
me to, please let me know, and I will do my best to come!
*The blog will also be updated with this information as well
