How To...

Today we made cards! It was an introduction to our "How To" writing.

Our plan is to have an "Author's Tea" on Friday. Students will have the opportunity to share on of their stories aloud with the class while enjoying SOME sort of refreshment. Then we will clear out our folders for the next -how to- unit.

I have really enjoyed celebrating your child's growth with you at conference time. Everyone is making such great gains. What a truly lovely group of kids I get to be with every day! Lucky.

AND...
I was on recess duty today, and realized there is not much snow on the ground. Most of the class is choosing not to wear snowpants and boots at this point. It's okay with me, as long as they stay off those plow piles.

AND...
DO log onto the district website for more information from the Comprehensive Strategic Planning Committee, or to ask them questions you would like them to consider while they research the reconfiguration of elementary schools into k-2 and 3-5 schools.
