Notes from Stonehedge Elementary
October 7, 2022
Message from Stonehedge Elementary School Principal
Dear Stonehedge Families,
Thank you so much for your participation in Paige's Pajamarama. Our FABULOUS Stonehedge Community raised over $800 for this important cause! (And, who doesn't love a good reason to wear pjs to school and work?) Check out the pictures below!
October is the month of PARP. We've also had an exciting time sharing in our One School One Book reading of Because of a Rabbit. We hope you and yours are enjoying the experience, too! The book fair and penny wars were a huge hit, too! I can't thank you enough for the constant support you give to our students.
The students have been hard at work digging into our academics. It is amazing to see the growth of one month's time. We look forward to getting back to our hard work on Tuesday, as we are off Monday for Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples Day.
Sincerely,
Amanda Simmons
One School One Book and PARP!
Our first week reading Because of a Rabbit has been a huge success! We've had in-class discussions, trivia contests, and a few very special surprise activities. Reading continues until the 13th. Videos will be posted on the blog! Matteo has been helping the entire school with some french words from the book. This week we've learned:
Rabbit is "lapin"
Because of Rabbit is "á cause du lapin"
School is "école"
Friend is "ami"
October is PARP Month
