5th Grade Families: Middle School Registration Season!
(Para Espanol: Utilice la guía de planificación [Planning Guide] con este enlace).
You can also sign your student up for a virtual one-on-one meeting with me using Google appointment slots (go to the week of March 21 for availability). This is OPTIONAL but is highly encouraged for Virtual Academy students. If you sign up for a meeting, please make sure your student logs on using "Ms. Ottmer's 5th grade" Google Classroom link and is on time.
I am excited to be a part of this process with your students! Please don't hesitate to email or call me with any questions.

POSITIVITY PROJECT

Our Quarter 3 Assembly is coming soon!
If your student received a P2 award for Quarter 2, please use this link to find their certificate.
To help students continue these lessons and practice in daily life, you can use the P2 Book List or P2 for Families resource (password is "P2"). (Links below).
We also encourage you to have all of your family members take the character strength survey. This can be a great way to learn more about P2 and connect with LME!
