Old News, but still important!
Folders/Planners- Please continue to check, sign and clean out the planner each night. Look over and discuss any graded work
Car Line- Please remember that the car line ends at 3:30. It is important that your child is picked up by this time. If you are struggling to get your child picked up you may need to contact the YMCA and get put on the waiting list for after-school care.
Conferences- I will begin setting up conferences in the next couple of weeks. I will share all the beginning-of-grade assessment information with you at this time.
Dojo- I hope you will check Dojo frequently for classroom news and updates.
Snack- Please make sure that your child brings a small snack (just one) and a water bottle to school each day.
Homework- Your child should be reading for a total of 20 minutes each night and practicing skip-counting aloud.

Our third-grade team is raising money to put books in the hands of our students. One of the biggest joys of teaching is seeing a student fall in love with a book. We hope to be able to send home at least one book each month with every student in our grade. Growing lifelong readers is the goal —and your contribution will help do just that! Click the link below to donate to our campaign and be sure to share this link with family and friends. Thanks so much!
