Mrs. Stagg's Class
November 2013
Where has the time gone???
It amazes me how quickly the semester has flown by! I'm equally amazed by how much the kids have grown (more academic, not so much in size). They are able to do more than I even thought possible, given only 12 weeks of instruction! Thank you for all your support at home that makes their rapid growth possible!
Don't forget that next MONDAY is Castle Day, where we will learn about and build castles. Thanks for all the donations so far! We are in real need of white icing, as well as the items listed in the note last week. Thanks so much for supporting this awesome enrichment day!
Fact Families
This is a hard skill to master, but we're getting there!
Technology part 1
Have you ever said to yourself, Gee, I REALLY wish I had more technology to put in my kids hands.... ?
Technology part 2
Well, I found out that sometimes people listen.... Here we are being awarded a grant for 11 iPad minis thanks to a few very supportive parents!
