Welcome back…look into our week 1/4-1/8

Good morning parents and guardians,

Welcome back, HAPPY NEW YEAR! I am excited to get back into the classroom and see my kiddos to create new memories with them. We are getting closer to the 100th day of school and our kiddos becoming first graders. Time will fly by but until then we will keep on learning and have fun doing it.

Please feel free to email me or stop by with any questions or concerns. Students will be given access to MobyMAx with week. Please try using the online program at home. Students may do Language Arts or Math. This is an awesome individualized learning program. Students will also have access to this program during centers (iPads). Also, parents still have access to our grade books. My grade book is updated on a weekly basis.

Enjoy the weekend!

Thank you,
