Day 2

With the school year only two days old and the first of 2 early dismissals, this has to be the hottest beginning to a new year that I have ever experienced and the hottest that the fourth graders have ever known! Even in the extreme heat though, my class is keeping its cool! As we wrote our mission statement today and got to know each other and ourselves through surveys, I realized that this class knows that each individual is here to learn. How lucky am I, to have a class like this!
Good news! The All Star Club has its first star earner: Lexie already earned her first star by learning about 26 different careers-one for each letter of the alphabet! Way to go Lexie!

Homework:
None tonight except for parents who need to complete forms!
Next week we will begin with a homework packet and a spelling assignment that will both come home on Monday and be due on Friday. The homework packet will contain one social studies, one math, and one reading assignment. The spelling assignment can actually be started on Friday since the spelling list is on the Friday folder report and the website, and the assignment can be printed from the website.

Reminders!
Two hour early dismissal on Friday
Friday folders will come home on Friday. Ask your child to see his/her folder!
