Open House

Glad to see everyone made it through the storm. The children came right back like nothing ever happened! That was great! We have accomplished soooo much this week already. The storm has only put us a few days behind.

Tomorrow, August 28, will be our Open House this year. It will begin at 5:30 for grades 3-5. A note went home about it in the student's planner.

Please be sure to check your child's planner every night for notes, homework reminders, and up coming tests.

There will be no Spelling again this week. We will begin formal Spelling lists next week. We have however started putting our reading folders together. You should have already seen your child reading for homework starting Tuesday. This will continue until the end of the year. Ask your child to see their reading book bag. It should contain their reading folder with their logs in it, their readers notebook and a chapter book they chose on their level. This is a very important part of their reading practice.

Until next time!

First Day!

Well the first day is past! I was very proud of the class today. They came in ready to learn! They impressed me by how many classroom routines they carried over from last year. Please continue to encourage your child to listen and do their best every day!

Most students had their supplies today and that was great! A BIG thank you to all the parents who sent in supplies on the wish list!!!!

Keep your fingers crossed that the storm will change track so there can be school Wednesday!!! :)
Until next time, R. O'Steen
