Good morning and Happy Friday all!
We have just about completed our first full week together and accomplished so much! We have been working to build our classroom community and also build our stamina! In reading this week our focus has been on Context Clues. We have discussed using inferences, definitions, examples, antonyms and synonyms (IDEAS) to help us determine meaning of unknown words. We practice our skills during some outdoor learning where we completed some task cards and also by partnering up to read some partner plays and work together to determine meaning. Great to see students moving in the sunshine and helping each other out! We are about one-third of the way through our new read aloud Front Desk. Be sure to ask your child about this wonderful book. It is the story of an immigrant family from China who get a job as a manager of a motel in California. Mia, the young girl, is dealing with many types of adversity as her family struggles to survive and make a living in the United States. Some great conversations have been going on in our class! We also had a book tasting this week and students have chosen a new book for our next literature circle which will begin on Monday! Students will be working together to set reading goals and be ready to discuss their books with their small groups. Some of the titles they chose are: The Unteachables, Gregor the Overlander and Lunch Money. I am looking forward to some great conversations as they get going in these books next week! We are finishing up our opinion writing where we took a stand on recess, school uniforms, or zoos. Students are doing a nice job working to state both the pros and cons of their arguments. After April break we will focus on Poetry for a few weeks and then dig into a research project. We took a break from our look at Producers, Consumers and Decomposers in Science this week and dove into Westward Expansion. We discussed the hardships the early pioneers found as they traveled west and learned about the Louisiana Purchase. We took this work outside and worked in small groups to create detailed maps As we learned about President Thomas Jefferson's role in expanding US territories, we also looked at the travels of Lewis and Clark. Next up is the War of 1812! In Math, we began our work with decimals. We are looking at place value to the thousandths place and did a great deal of work on adding decimals this week. We did some error analysis to help remind us why we need to remember to line up decimals before adding. We had some fun playing Addition Top It, where strategy became a game changer as students worked to either build two addends to find the greatest sum or the smallest. Next week we will continue by introducing subtraction and also looking at comparing decimals. Great work by all! Students should be working on their March Madness projects. All have told me what project they chose and that is their afterschool work until break. Many of mentioned they won't be here on Friday, they know their project is due BEFORE they leave for break! Parent conference sign-ups were sent out by Mrs. Burns and I have almost everyone signed up! If the times I provided don't work for you, please email me so we can work to find a convenient time to discuss your child's progress! Here is the link just in case www.signupgenius.com/go/8050D4DA9AF2BA7F58-spring This week we also spent some time designing cards for Mrs. Benner to thank her for all that she does for all of us each day! It is Asst Principal Appreciation Week and we wanted her to know how much we appreciate her! We also spent some time talking about MINDSET. The power of YET, no more saying I can't do this.. we say I can't do it YET.. it is a process for all of us to do hard things and as a class we will continue to focus on this, working together to make progress! Enjoy this beautiful weather, and thank you for all the support as we have come back together as a FULL class! Cheers Maura Important Dates to Remember:

Happy Friday, Happy Full In Person!
WOW! What a week! So excited to be back full in person! Overall, students did a fabulous job transitioning. We are, as a class, working on remembering to use quiet, inside voices as our excitement to see each other this week, led to some rowdy times in our classroom! Now that we have our first few days under our belt, we are looking to settle in and finish the year STRONG! We just finished our month-long look at story elements in some awesome picture books and celebrated throughout the month with so many guest readers it was incredible. This week we were fortunate to have Mr. Dobbins join us to read a chapter from Where the Red Fern Grows. I can't thank you all enough for sharing your love of reading with our class! Our new schedule, definitely allows for some movement with our snack/mask breaks at 10:20AM followed by specialists at 10:45AM. Lunch is later than we are used to, at 1:20pm but students are remembering to bring in a snack to have at our 10:30AM mask break and that helps a great deal! Remember absolutely no eating food in the classroom, so rain or shine we will head out for that 10:30AM time period to grab a quick snack to keep our bodies fueled! We take our second mask break at 2:20PM before we wrap up our days together. We had lots of fun starting to build our classroom community this week. Please check out the photo gallery as many pictures of our first day and activities throughout our first week were posted. We had our first STEM challenge, which ended in a shoot out ! Congratulations James Bass for sinking the free throw for the win! Maia Crichton, Katherine Hotarek and Gabby Sousa were our runner-ups! Good job done by all! While building our basketball catapults, we also learned about the history of the Final Four, the history of basketball and even became cartoon artists of a basketball player. We spent some of our outdoor learning time looking at basketball excerpts which contained new vocabulary and used context clues to figure out definitions and use in new sentences. Today we even looked at some social media posts by some famous basketball players. It was our job to find the mistakes made #findthemistakes! We are working to become better self editors for punctuation and spelling! Today, we celebrated Idiom Day! Be sure to check out the gallery to see the creativity that was alive in our classroom! BRAVO! All in all, it was a fantastic return to full in person. I couldn't be prouder of how far these kids have come and look forward to even more great things together as a united class! As I continue to remind them, staying together is dependent on us all continuing to be vigilant with our mask wearing and handwashing. With the good weather coming we will get outside more often, but still need to be socially distant. The 3 feet is definitely challenging many, so we will continue working on this! As always, I cannot thank you all enough, for the kind words of support throughout our year together. It was great to see all the kids so happy upon their return and to see them forging new friendships without classroom community! Enjoy the extended weekend with your families! I cannot wait for our first full week of in person learning next week! Cheers! Maura Important Dates to Remember:
Happy Last Friday of Hybrid!!
Did I hear some cheers?! I know we have been smiling big in Room 15 as we count the days until Tuesday!! In Math, this week we have been reviewing multiplication and division of fractions and also doing some work reviewing multiplication of larger numbers. We will be doing some fun March "Mathness" activities next week to review many of the topics we have worked on this year!. Speaking of March Madness, I have mailed a letter to your child with a Ticket inside. They have been asked to wear school colors on Tuesday as we kick of our full return. When they arrive they will realize Room 15 is in MARCH MADNESS! We will be learning about the history of basketball and the Final Four, engaging in a STEM challenge where they will make a catapult with me and then be challenged to improve it to be used in a class contest, working on correcting grammar mistakes on Twitter and Instagram from some famous athletes as well as continuing our work with context clues. Next week is sure to be a lot of fun as we work thematically as we learn more about each other and build our classroom community! I cannot wait to get started! This week we put the finishing touches on some open response practice questions, again using our ACE organizers to be sure we answer questions completely and with evidence to support! We are working on opinion articles about School Uniforms, Recess and Zoos and have been having lots of fun with Idioms! Next THURSDAY, APRIL 1 is IDIOM DAY in Room 15! (One of my favorite days of the year!). Students will be bringing their card stock project of the idiom they chose along with their prop or costume to school so we can share our creativity as we learn more about this fun figurative language! With the warmer weather coming, I have asked all students to bring their towels back to school as I plan on using an outdoor classroom as much as possible. Additionally, they can bring a snack each day which we will have during our 10:30 mask break. We don't have lunch until 1:20pm, so it will be a good idea to have something small at 10:30am. Please note, I am not allowed to provide snacks for students that forget them and if it is POURING rain (we do go out when it sprinkles) we will not be outside so will not have a snack on those days. I have mentioned this to kids that on lousy days they may want to make sure they have a heartier breakfast! Lastly, if you have not yet emailed me to print and give to your child, or a card for me to pass on when they arrive on Tuesday, please send to me by Monday. I have received so many and can't wait to watch the excitement on their faces when they read your messages of encouragement as we start our final term together! As always, let me know if you have questions, and THANK YOU very much for all you have done to keep us safe and ready to be back! Cheers Maura Important Dates to Remember Friday, March 26th - REPORT CARDS - POSTED ONLINE Monday, March 29th - bring snack and towel to school Tuesday, March 30th - FULL IN PERSON (WHOOP WHOOP) Wednesday, March 31st - HALF DAY (no remote work) Thursday, April 1 - IDIOM DAY Friday, April 2 - NO SCHOOL - Good Friday Happy Friday!
Can you believe today is the last day of WINTER!! Of course, I woke up to snow on the Cape, but the sun was shining as I crossed the bridge and it will be melted by the time I get home! A busy week in Room 15 with lots of excitement and buzz about our return to full in person learning. It looks like we will be back on Tuesday, March 30th - the School Committee votes on Monday! While most kids seem really excited, some have mentioned some nervousness about the long days ahead. I think it is really important we continue to talk about this with them to let them know we are all here to support them and will be working through this change TOGETHER! As mentioned last week, I'd love to get a card, note or even an email from each family to put on your child's desk when they arrive that first day of full in person. A note of encouragement and praise for what they have done and what we still have to accomplish. I have started to receive a few - you can drop off at the office, mail or email to me at school or send in with your child any time! The first few weeks we will be spending a great deal of time establishing our classroom community. While we have done some work on our remote days, now that we are ALL back together, we will need to go over expectations etc and get to know each other better as a TEAM. We will begin each day with our Class Meeting which will consist of a greeting, sharing opportunity and a class activity. This is a great way for students to get to know each other and build that sense of community. I cannot wait to get started!! This past week we have been doing more work with mixed fractions and multiplication, while also reviewing some of our basic operations. Students have been practicing converting mixed to improper numbers to help them when multiplying mixed fractions and we have been spending some time reviewing division as well. Next week we will work on story problems using all 4 operations with fractions. Students are working hard to look for key terms and to try to picture what is being asked to help them decide which strategy and model to use to solve problems. Great work by all! In reading, we finished AMONG THE HIDDEN, and students are now beginning a choice board as a culminating activity. They will choose 2 projects and have them both submitted by Friday, March 26th. I have attached a copy of the Choice Board to my email. Next week, we are going to be working on analyzing a selection from Among the Hidden, looking at strategies for answering multiple choice questions as well as continuing to use our ACE to develop and organize our thoughts when answering an open response question. We did a great job on our Figurative Language posters and now will have some fun with a focus on IDIOMS! Stay tuned next week for details on an Idiom project! We will work to show our understanding of both the literal and figurative meaning of an idiom and then either dress up or bring in props to present our learnings. This is always a fun week and I have planned Idiom Week for our first week back! In writing, we have begun to do some reading on topics for our argumentative/opinion essays. Students are reviewing articles on testing, school uniforms, recess and zoos and will then decide which one they want to dig into. They will then research the pros and cons of their topic and write an essay with their claim. This is always a fun writing activity and I am anxious to get this going! We have continued our work with our March Madness read alouds. This week we read stories of acceptance, courage and perservence. Be sure to check out our photo gallery for the titles and ask your child about them! We also loved having Mrs. Polcari join us and share a family favorite and are looking forward to Mr. Polcari's appearance next week! If anyone else wants to share a family favorite with us, click this link and choose a time that works for you. If we need to schedule a different time, just let me know as we can be flexible! Happy Friday and Happy Sunshine all!
I can't believe that a year ago, I left school thinking I was leaving "regular" teaching for two weeks, and we have now hit a YEAR! I do feel VERY blessed that I have been able to be in person with your children four out of five days this year, but I am over the moon excited about the plans to come back FULL TIME!! (Did I hear a whoop whoop!??) Once we have the exact date set and all plans are locked and loaded, I'd like to plan to do something fun for the kids on their first day back. I think it is so important that they hear from all of us how very proud we are of them and their ability to be flexible over the past year. One thought I had been to ask that each of you write a note that I can have waiting on their desk when they arrive our first full day back. You can tell them the things you are so proud of and the hopes we have for them as we finish our year together! If it is easier to send an email that is fine, or you could drop a card off at school and I will keep them in my desk until our full in person return. My head is still thinking about some other ideas, but this I think would make day 1 really special for them! This week we definitely felt the Spring peeking in (even though I see the forecast has a dip in temperatures coming up)! I told kids to start bringing their towels back in as when the weather warms we will be enjoying outdoor learning as soon as we are able! This week our focus was on dividing fractions. Looking at dividing a whole number by a fraction and a fraction by a whole. We then took those strategies and looked at word problems. Next week we will review multiplication and division of fractions and take an assessment to see how we are doing, what we need to review to get us ready for decimals! I am also starting to really spiral back to some earlier lessons from our year, just to remind them of all they have accomplished, but also to dust off any cobwebs on other topics ! In Reading and Writing we have been focusing on Figurative Language. Students have a project due next Friday - A figurative language poster showing 8 different examples of figurative language. Then we will be having lots of fun with idioms. I plan to celebrate Idiom Week with them our first full in person week back! This is always a ton of fun - more information will be coming home soon! Students have also been working on test taking strategies. This week we looked at two different excerpts about survival and then wrote about the challenges the main characters faced and how they overcame those challenges! Great work done by all, they are really doing a nice job using our ACE graphic organizers! In Science, we are finishing up our work on the Earth, Moon and Stars and will be again reviewing some of what we learned about Matter and Forces before moving on to Ecosystems and the world around us! Our celebration of reading is going strong! I cannot thank all of you enough for taking the time to come and read with us! This week we had Mr. and Mrs. Britton, Mrs. Bass, Mrs. Foy, Mrs. Sousa and Mrs. Carbone share their family favorites with wonderful messages about how to be the best we can be! If you'd like to join in the fun, simply click this link and choose a time that best works for your schedule, or you can record your reading and send me the file to share! Kids LOVE seeing their parents on Google Meets in front of their peers, and it sends such a positive message to them about the importance of reading in our lives! Be sure to check out all the pictures in our photo gallery! Many might be options for their Memory Boards (DUE ON MONDAY!). Have a great weekend and as always, thank you!! Cheers! Maura Important Dates to Remember
Happy Friday all!
We have started off March with some Reading Madness in Room 15! Please be sure to ask your child what their favorite March Madness Picture Book was this week! We enjoyed a title about the Cherokee Nation, about puppies in France, a new version of Jack in the Beanstalk, one about a Shapeless Shape trying to find his identity and lastly a book about soccer fields in Saint Lucia! We have talked about Story Elements of each and how authors write about different themes using these beautiful books. We also had some guest readers sharing some family favorites and look forward to more guests in the coming weeks! I can't tell you how special it is for the kids to see you all sharing your love of reading! If you'd like to join in the fun, simply click this link and sign up! www.signupgenius.com/go/8050D4DA9AF2BA7F58-read In Science, we have been working hard to learn the Moon phases, creating models from Oreos and reviewing with some Kahoots. We also have been looking at how NASA gets ready to explore the Moon and even Mars! We had a great STEM challeneg to build a PASTA ROVER for Mars. Students needed to stay within a budget to buy materials to build a rover that would travel down a 1 meter ramp and then continue on a flat surface for 1 mile! We will be letting our Rovers dry over the weekend and testing them on Monday! Be sure to check back for updates! Happy Friday all!
Another great week in Room 15! It was so great to see those smiles coming down the hallway on Monday! Lots of great stories about vacation week and happy to say they all got right back into the rhythm of our days! This week we have been busy kicking off our work on argumentative essays. We have been reading and analyzing different points of view about serving chocolate milk in school as we learn how to research evidence to prepare to make our claims and back them up with evidence. Some lively discussions have already started, and I am excited to get them started ! Once we finish going through the process together with the chocolate milk argument, students will be choosing another topic to research and write about. This is always a great unit, with lots of great discussions and work on use of transitions to state claims and counter-claims! In Science, we continue our work on the Earth, Moon and Stars, this week we began with a focus on why stars appear different in the night sky and ended the week beginning to analyze the moon phases! Today, we modeled the moon phases in class and next week students will be building their own models on Wednesday afternoon - always a fun project! In Math, WOW! I have been so impressed with their effort as we started multiplication of fractions. We have looked at modeling whole numbers x fractions and fractions x whole numbers. Students have worked hard to understand how to draw models for each and why the different models are important especially as we look at word problems. We began looking at fraction x fraction and will continue that work next week before moving on to multiplying with mixed fractions. In Reading, we have started a Science Fiction novel Among the Hidden. This is a new genre for many students, but I believe many are really starting to enjoy. It is very different from many of the books we have read, but still has a great lesson about courage and perseverance. Kids are already asking for me to read more to them in class as they are often left with "cliffhangers" when listening to their chapters at home! Love that enthusiasm. Next week we will be looking at how figurative language is used in novels. This is always a fun unit as students look for examples as they do their independent reading and share daily with the class. As you all know, reading is definitely a passion of mine, and I am hoping you will also share your passion for reading with our class by volunteering to read a favorite picture book or chapter from a favorite novel with our class. I sent out an email this morning with a link, but I am putting it here again just in case! Please choose a time convenient for you and I will then send you the link for our Google meeting! www.signupgenius.com/go/8050D4DA9AF2BA7F58-read To celebrate World Read Aloud Day, next Wednesday afternoon Mrs. Fuller has put together some guest readers for students - grades 3-5 will log in from 1:40-2:15. We will celebrate VIRTUAL LITERACY NIGHT on Thursday, March 4th at 6:30 and as part of that celebration, students can dress up as their favorite characters for school on Thursday - should be tons of fun! (See the flyer attached o this email!) A few parents have asked recently if the class needs any supplies. We are down to our last 2 rolls of paper towels and need some sandwich size ziploc bags. We have about 4 boxes of Kleenex left so depending on allergy season, we may need to replenish those in a few weeks (HERE COMES SPRING!!) Lots of great things happening! Thank you, as always, for your continued support. Can you believe our 100th day is Tuesday??!! I know we have much to accomplish in our final 70 days, but I am looking forward to many great adventures! Best, Maura Important Dates to Remember
We made it!
I am so proud of our kiddos and our whole community! Thinking back to the beginning of the year we thought we might be fully remote by Thanksgiving, but by working together we have been together in our classroom since day 1. In appreciation for all the kids have done and to let them know how proud we are, the teachers created a video message for them. I shared it with my classes today, and we talked about staying safe over vacation week so that we can be back together as a WHOLE class sooner rather than later ! Here is the link again for anyone wanting to see the video. BELIEVE We had a busy week, working with fractions again, but this week looking at building Line Plots and then interpreting the data. Students did a nice job with this! We will review after break and then begin our work on Multiplication & Division of Fractions. Keep working on fact fluency at home - this a key to success with fractions! In reading, we finished our Fighting Ground Projects - they were AMAZING - see our photo gallery for a few pictures. We definitely have some creative students! I loved that some students chose to write chapters from the book from a different character's perspective! Well done! We also finished our work with the Non Fiction Notice and Note Strategies, by looking at quoted words and word gaps. We talked alot about what to do when we come across words we don't know and how it can impact our understanding of a text. Prairie Lotus was completed and we had some great discussions about overcoming fears, acceptance of diverse cultures and being true to oneself ! Students have chosen Among the Hidden as our next read aloud. It is a Science Fiction novel which should definitely make for some great conversations! (And I love that it is part of a series, so if they like this one, I am hoping it will get them to read the others!!) In writing, we finished up our feature articles. We will be sharing them right after break and then diving into our next unit on the Argumentative Essay. Students will be lead through the argument "Should Chocolate Milk be Allowed in School", making claims, finding evidence etc. They will then choose a new topic from a list to write their own essay. This is always a fun unit for kids! In Science, we are working on the Earth, Moon and Stars and this week talked a bit about the Earths's rotation and how it impacts day and night as well as how shadows are formed. Students are coming home today with a model they built to show the Sun, Moon and Earth and how they are connected. We have lots more to cover in this unit when we return. Today, we also had some fun with a STEM Project! We were engineers for a Rock N Roll band that needed a sturdy stage built! With just 10 sheets of paper, 4 popsicle sticks, 4 straws, 1 balloon and some tape students had to build a stage that was freestanding, at least 6 inches off the ground and could hold the most pennies. Lots of learnings as they made and remade to fit the requirements! See the photo gallery for some of the trials! The first week in March we will be celebrating World Read Aloud Day, and each year I typically have invited parents in who want to come and share a favorite read aloud or a chapter from a favorite childhood book. I don't want to lose this opportunity to show our students how important reading is to all of us, so I thought I could set this up as Google Meets. I will be sending out a Sign Up Genius the Monday after vacation with times for numerous days in March to have "guest" readers sign up for a Google meet with our Class. Each day I will have a morning and afternoon session option and different time slots, so I am hoping I will be able to get many of you to join us! I am happy to help choose a book if you need help, but in the past it has been fun for parents to share different books their 5th graders liked as a young child. During the month of March the fifth grade typically does a "March Madness of Picture Books". Each day we read a picture book to work on Story Elements as well as Theme. These books were chosen to highlight diverse cultures and themes and this month has always been a lot of fun! I was hoping to add some more personal titles by having parents involved from home this year! Once the Sign-up genius is out, if the times do not work for you, but you really want to share with us, please just reach out, and we will figure something out! Hoping to have many of you join us! Have a wonderful, safe and relaxing week! Cheers! Maura Important Dates to Remember:
Happy Friday all! Well, we started off the week with some crazy weather, changes to schedules, yet, once again we made it through! Students did a nice job getting work completed on our half day and settled right back in on Tuesday! This week we have been organizing our thoughts for our Feature Articles. We have been using a frayer model to note our main ideas (with details), quotes to support our articles, illustration drafts and our overall planned organization (choosing text features we have decided to use). We started our drafts and will be focusing on developing strong leads and also work on paraphrasing next week. In Math, we used some pattern blocks to look at adding and subtracting with unlike denominators. We practiced renaming whole numbers to fractions in order to subtract. Finding the common denominator and watching the signs continue to be our focus as work with larger numbers. In reading, we finished reading The Fighting Ground, and are working on a choice board to show some of our learnings from this great historical fiction novel. We are also really enjoying Prairie Lotus, waiting to see what will happen to Hannah and her father as they open their store! Lots of discussion about a sense of belonging as this Chinese American girl tries to fit in with her new classmates and community. In writing, we have also been working on Open Response questions. We have been using the A.C.E (Answer Cite Explain) strategy to organize our thoughts and find good evidence to back up our claims. Their first response is in their Friday folders today. You can see the article, their first draft (before we started using ACE) and then how they edited their responses to restate the question and add good evidence. We are working on our second example now and those should come home next week. We have also continued our work with Non Fiction Notice and Note Strategies, this week looking at Numbers and Stats and Quoted Words. These strategies will help us decide what information to add or edit from our feature articles! Good effort from all! Please be sure all VALENTINE Compliment Hearts are in school by Tuesday. They must be quarantined to be able to be distributed on Friday! A reminder any store bought Valentines must be in by Tuesday as well (these are not necessary) * remember no food!) Projects on The Fighting Ground should be well underway. These are due on Thursday! We are wrapping this novel up, so we will be ready for our next novel after February break! In Science, we have begun our work on the Earth, Sun and Stars, this week focusing on gravity! Students are finding out why gravity is so important and how it impacts life on Earth. We had some fun today with a Marshmallow Pasta Stem Challenge! Be sure to check out the photo gallery to see some of the results of our STEM challenge today! Enjoy the weekend! Seems strange to be watching a Super Bowl without the Patriots, but I guess we still have the G.O.A.T to watch! Thanks for all of your support to keep these kiddos safe and healthy! Best, Maura Hello all!
Can you believe we have finished out January! We are almost halfway through our year together and thanks to all of our social distancing, handwashing and sanitizing we have remained together in our hybrid model. Thank you all for your efforts! I keep telling the kids to remain vigilant so we can look forward to full time together some time this SPRING! Nothing would make me happier! I have to say, for all the craziness this year has sent us, these kiddos continue to amaze me with their positive attitudes and daily smiles. It is not easy, but they are pushing through! I am so proud of the efforts and progress so far and can't wait to continue to watch them grow. This week, in reading we began looking at the Non-Fiction Signposts. We analyzed Contrasts & Contradictions as well as Extreme & Absolute Language. We read some non-fiction articles and asked ourselves, why did the author use specific language, what does it tell us about the author's purpose? Some great discussions were held, and I can wait to continue our work next week with Numbers & Stats as well as Quoted Words. We also spent some time this week on some grammar review. We worked and will continue to work on common and proper nouns and are focusing on remembering their rules of capitalization in our daily writing. Additionally, we had some fun looking at some homophones that we constantly misuse in our writing : There, Their & They're, Your & You're, and It's and Its. Next week we will look at many others, but again, our focus is to see the translation in their writing. In Math, this week we spent a lot of our time working on equivalent fractions as we then began to add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators. We explored with Fraction Bars to see how we could build equivalent fractions in many ways. We also used the bars to show how we subtract mixed numbers. I loved watching them problem-solve! Next week will continue our work adding and subtracting mixed numbers. Students did a great job illustrating fast and slow processes that change the Earth's surface! Next week we will be starting our Unit on the Earth, Moon & Stars focusing on the apparent brightness of the Sun and stars and also review the Moon Phases. In reading, students have been very engaged in our discussions of both The Fighting Ground and Prairie Lotus. I love hearing them make connections to previous things learned as well as to previous characters from books we have read together this year. Their predictions along the way have also shown they are using what they have read to better shape their predictions. Nice to see this progress! I hope you all enjoy a wonderful, long weekend! Friday folders came home on Thursday, comments are on their pinks sheets for your review. Please return on Monday. As always, thank you for all of your patience and support as we continue to work together to give these kids the best experience we can! Important Dates to Remember:
