WE DID IT!! Our First FULL Week!
Our time together in P9 has been about getting to know each other in order to build connections. Being connected with shared interests, and shared experiences helps to foster an environment for learning. Additionally, as we learn about our differences we learn to embrace & celebrate what makes each learner unique. I have been so thrilled with the kindness and interest the students have already shown toward one another in our short time together.
On Monday we will start our ELA (English Language Arts) program by learning about, "Inventors at Work" and a review of short vowel sounds We will also take a pretest for the math unit of adding and subtracting decimals, and we will continue on writing about our "Three Favorite Things" later this week!! Things are really moving in P9!
I am excited about this year and will look forward to meeting you all on curriculum night! If you can come, please consider bringing your 5th grader too! It is all about what they will be learning!!
Yours truly,
Erin Chargualaf

Arrival - Students may not arrive before 9:05. We will have staff members helping to escort your child to the right place once they arrive at school. If they are buying breakfast at school: they will first drop off their bags in the undercover area, then return to the kitchen to purchase food. Breakfast is to be eaten in the gym. If they are not eating breakfast, students will go straight to morning supervision in the back field after placing their bags in the undercover area.
Departure- If your student is NOT riding a bus home, we will need a note on the first day of school letting us know how your child will be getting home at the end of the school day.
If you are picking up your child, please - have a sign in your car window with your child's first and last name.
Thanks!
