Look into our week Unit 5 WK 3 (3/26-3/30)

Good morning parents and guardians, 
Thank you for bringing your child to school and on time!  Here is last week's attendance stats:


Please be sure to check your child's backpack everyday to clean it out and look at important papers.

Scholastic Book Orders
March Book catalogs have gone home. Even though there is  deadline to submit orders, feel free to order books online whenever you would like. As soon as you place an order, let me know so I can approve it. The system is no longer notifying teachers when there is a new order.
Scholastic Books-not only do they have monthly books for $1, but you help the class earn point to purchase books. Feel free to place an order using the link below and use our classroom identification code. Book orders are usually delivered in a week and a half.
 Classroom code: M9M7P


Be sure to check out the new school calendar



Be sure to check out our Shutterfly page for our latest classroom pictures. If you would like access, please email me for a special invite. 

Don't forget to use SMARTYPANTS at home. This new, fun reading program can be accessed at home. All students received their log in information last month. If you have any question, let me know.
