Friendly Reminder...Early Dismissal at 1:30 Monday
2nd grade students at SES are working hard while researching habitats and animals. They are using their gathered facts to create informative writing pieces. #yjnation #lovelearngrow
In Mrs Johnson’s 1st grade classroom students went on a hunt around the room to different task cards. They had to count the items and record that many tally marks! Then they had to total up their numbers. They enjoyed learning about how to record information using tally marks.
During Writer’s Workshop, Mrs. Corley is using Phonics First strategies to help students stretch out words in their sentences! #YJNation #LoveLearnGrow

Box Tops for Education
We are having a Box Top collection contest during the 2018-2019 school year. We will collect Box Tops from each class.
Box Tops Tips:
Please trim all excess off of all labels prior to turning them in; it saves us time and shipping. Please use the attached collection sheet and either glue or tape the box top in the square. Each filled page of box tops will amount to $3.00 and will be counted toward your child’s class. Please check the expiration dates prior to sending in. Bonus Box Tops have to be kept separate from regular box tops. Please make sure your child’s name and teacher are printed on the collection sheet. If you need more collection sheets, contact the office or your child’s teacher.
