Thank you so much to everyone who donated extra snacks to our class. So far kids have been doing a great job of remembering their snacks, but it's always nice to be prepared just in case. I think we have enough for now, but thank you so much for being so thoughtful! 

Just a reminder that conferences are coming up in two weeks! Click here to sign up if you haven't yet. If you need an alternate time or day, just let me know and I will make it work. I am also able to meet virtually. The kids have been working hard to complete their slides to present at the conferences. 

Students needing to eat breakfast need to arrive at 8:10 and eat in the gym. Many kids are coming up to the room with breakfast and we have had many unexpected spills. Since we have a special at 8:35, they can't eat until after anyway and it's becoming a problem! Please help by feeding your child breakfast at home or getting them here to eat in the gym. If they take the bus, they should go to the cafeteria right away when they arrive & start eating. Thank you for your help!

We had our first class reward last Friday! The kids brought home toys and had an extra recess outside. It was so much fun! We are hoping to watch the movie Because of Winn Dixie(our read-aloud book) for the next one. 

Laps for Lincoln will kick off this week! Our PTO led the assembly last week to get kids pumped up and explain how it works. We are hopeful for another great turn out this year!

                                                         Conferences are this week! Please click  here  to check your day & time. The kids have been working hard to complete their slides to present at the conferences. Due to the short time we have together & the length of the slides, I will most likely have you finish up your conference with your child in the hallway after our time is up. Last year the kids could finish at home, but with the Chromebooks staying here, that gets a little tricky. I will set up a desk with some chairs. Thanks for understanding! Laps for Lincoln kicked off this week! Our PTO generously donated shirts and has been busy counting all the donations. We are hopeful for another great turnout this year! Thank you! Hope to see you  at the big event  on Friday from 5:00-7:00!! We are wrapping up o...

                                                         This week begins the student council stuff-a-truck food donation collection.  Students are encouraged to bring any non-perishable food items to school each day. For a friendly competition, there will be a pizza party for the lower & upper el classes with the most donations. Thanks for your help in supporting our community! The Winn Dixie movie reward was a huge success! During the movie, kids were naturally comparing the movie to the book. It was fantastic to hear that the book was better and had more details! We enjoyed popcorn, pickles, Dump punch, and root beer & strawberry candy. Thanks to those who sent in items & thanks to Maggie for making & serving the punch! Since Friday is a half day and the end of the 1st trimester, we will have a read-in to celebrate all o...
