Wow...what a day!

Whew, we made it!  Today was quite the whirlwind of a day!  Your children worked so hard, listened alot, moved alot, talked alot and even danced like animals!  Thank you for giving them the opportunity to learn!  I am so excited to dig into math, writing and reading next week! 

Just a few reminders...
Your children will be bringing an agenda home with them each night.  At the end of each school day, we will write the homework for the evening.  There will be a few things we ask for you to do each night--reading for 20 minutes is one of them!  We haven't started our literature groups yet, but once we do, I will be sending books home with them.  We also won't have our library time until next Wednesday, so watch for books to come home then as well!
Your children will also bring a home folder in their backpack each day after school.  (It is the same folder that Back to School information was sent in. This folder should come back each day to school. It's the easiest way to transfer papers and keep them organized.

In the home folder tonight:
Student Council information--only sent home with students who were interested in this opportunity. Please go through this information with your child and work with them to decide if they would like the opportunity.
Book orders--for those who weren't at back to school night, I also sent hom Book order forms. I received a few more in my mailbox today that will be sent home Friday 8/24/2012.  All book orders for August are due next Friday 8/31/2012!

Last, but not least!  We have gym this Friday, so please remember to have your child bring tennis shoes!

Have a great one!
