Thursday Brief
October 25th
Last Brief of OCTOBER!
"TO DO" REMINDERS:
- At Risk-Thank you Jeanine for going through all the forms. She will hand deliver those today! It should be a simple task for you if you have questions just ask her or me.
- Ashley Foreman-We are still taking donations until tomorrow. I didn't make it out there last weekend, but Ashley Debler's dad will deliver the cards we have this weekend.
- Halloween Luncheon-Next week! Yay!
- lean out your closets and donate what you can. Take to Mrs. Singleterry in Read Right.
- Down Syndrome Awareness-Don't forget to order a shirt. October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month.
Today is last day of my writing STAAR practice TLc.typing practice for 4th grade on line test takers will continue daily from 7:15 to 7:45 in room 117.
GOOD CHOICE MOVIE
I have an issue with “everyone do your own” idea. I have to APPROVE all movies shown in the classroom. I do not feel like approving 40 different movies. Also, there is a form in the library if you are showing something (even from Netflix) in your classroom that has to be completed and submitted. Do not do this last minute.
Please work as a grade level or at least a POD/S to agree on a movie, turn it in to be approved by me ASAP, and I will get it uploaded on Mediacast.
CHECK PARENT CALENDAR BELOW PLEASE
