Weekly Wrap Up

Now that warmer weather is arriving, please try to make sure your child has a water bottle for school. They are outside 2-3 times a day between wellness and recess, and are quite thirsty when they come in! Also, with the warmer weather can come fluctuations in the classroom temperature. A sweater or sweatshirt kept in the your child’s locker might come in handy once the AC is turned on.

I want to let families know that I’m going to be out of school on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of next week (March 30, 31, and April 1) for minor oral surgery. I’ve already written detailed plans for the sub, so your child’s regular learning will continue! Please know that next Friday there will not be a newsletter or a progress report. There will be homework throughout the week, and home reading and math fact logs should continue. I will check them when I’m back the following week.

A few reminders:

• Students need to have a note from home each week to use their electronics during Fun Friday. 
• Sneakers should be worn on Wednesdays for gym.
• Recorders and music need to come back to school on Tuesdays for music.
• Please do NOT send foods with peanuts, tree nuts or seafoods at snack due to food allergies.

Here's what we're learning about in the next two weeks:

• Reader’s Workshop: Book Clubs
• Writer’s Workshop: Persuasive Writing
• Math: Perimeter and Area
• Social Studies: Plainville

Please remember that my door is always open if you have any questions or concerns. I also check email frequently. Together we are partners in your child’s education!
