One Day! Are you ready for 5th grade?

School starts on Wednesday!  Just a reminder that it is a full day of school this year.  Students will be dismissed at 1:55 p.m. out the 3rd grade doors.  My newsletter and  homework for the week are posted on my blog.  I also will send home hard copies of these as well each week.

Friday, students will attend a musical instrument assembly.  If your child is learning an instrument already you don't need to do a thing.  If your child wants to begin an instrument or change to a new instrument, this assembly is for this purpose.   Please discuss this with your child if they would like to begin lessons or change their instrument of choice.

If you can have those pencils sharpened before Wednesday, that would be great!

PEANUT FREE ZONE

With Halloween approaching,  it is very important that no nut items come into the classroom as well as items that MAY have been processed in the same area as peanuts. Please read the ingredient labels very closely, and for those of us that have trouble seeing closely now, put on your reading glasses, the print is small. Thank you for your help.

Please share with your child

Special request for kids returning to school: If you see someone who is struggling to make friends or being bullied because they don't have friends or because they are shy or not as good looking or not dressed in the best clothes PLEASE step up. Make a difference, be an example.Say hi or at least smile at them in the hallway. Defend them. You never know what that person might be facing outside of school. Your kindness might just make a BIG difference in some one's life!
