Happy Fall! As the leaves are changing so is our curriculum for this nine weeks. We have just started to study about explorers and are continuing our journey with simple machines in science. The children are learning the many ways to respond to literature through writing and are also comparing tall tales and fairy tales in traditional literature. Now that the first quarter of school has ended, your child should have a good grasp of what is expected of them throughout our day. I frequently conference with students about their work, as well as ways to improve conduct and study habits. Please continue to work with your child daily on reading, multiplication/division facts, and good behavior skills.
This week we started the Big Shanty canned food drive. We are collecting cans to help feed hungry families right here in our community. If you feel you have the means to donate, please feel free to send in cans over the next two weeks.
A big congratulations goes out to Rylie, Lawson, Braynt, and Ajay from our class for participating in our first annual science fair. Your hard work did not go unnoticed! Way to go!
As always, thank you all for your support and assistance with our class. As they say, "it takes a village to raise a child" and with your help we will raise productive, well-rounded citizens in our community. Thanks again, Karen Wright
