Freckle Education
This week, students were introduced (or reintroduced for some) to Freckle Education. This is an app that can be downloaded in the app store or a website you can visit on a desktop using the site: student.freckle.com. Students can login by putting in their first and last name and then putting in our class code, 3k4hgh. Students are more than welcome to use this as practice at home as well as in the classroom. If you have any questions about Freckle, feel free to reach out to me at any time.

Friday Snack Cart:
Each Friday, students can be chosen to get a healthy snack from the school's snack cart. The snacks are 25 cent. I will choose students who have been good CREW members throughout the week. If you would like to send in extra quarters to cover students that may forget to bring them, you are more than welcome to. We will have a jar in our classroom for this. If your child is chosen for the Friday Snack Cart, they will come home with a green ticket on Thursday letting you know.
