3rd Grade Verse of The Week☺️
Review of Psalm 36:5-8
5 Lord, your faithful love reaches to heaven,
your faithfulness to the clouds.
6 Your righteousness is like the highest mountains,
your judgments like the deepest sea.
Lord, you preserve people and animals.
7 How priceless your faithful love is, God!
People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
8 They are filled from the abundance of your house.
You let them drink from your refreshing stream.

HYDRATE💧
Please be sure your child brings a water bottle to school every day to have in the classroom and at PE/Recess-only plain water in them. Bottles should have lids-preferably that don’t have to be screwed off to access-that won’t open or spill easily when being carried or dropped. They don’t have to be huge bottles as both of us provide a water cooler dispenser in the classroom to refill bottles when students need to. As well, very large bottles are a challenge for many of the students to manage with all the other things they have to carry when switching classrooms, between Tharp and Chunn.
**Thanks to all the parents who are on a rotation to keep us stocked with gallon bottles for our water cooler dispensers.
