First off I want to give the parents and caregivers of my class of third graders a slow clap. *insert slow clap here* You have raised an amazing group of young people. Seriously, they make me smile! I have spent the last few weeks getting to know their personalities and the gifts that they bring to our little classroom community. I cannot help but wonder what fantastic choice my past-life-self made to put me here today.
Thanks to the many of you who came to Back-To-School Night last week. If you were unable to make it, I basically went over this web page and a little bit about our Class Dojo Behavior Management Tool. On Class Dojo you can always check on your kiddos progress and send me messages that go directly to my phone. If you have NOT yet signed into Class Dojo I will resend your username and password in your child's Friday Folder.
We had library checkout today and I think it might be best that students take their books home for a couple of reasons. #1 It's ALWAYS good to have good reading material at home for nightly reading homework and #2 We tend to misplace books in the classroom and then they end up with someone else mistakenly. We will have Library Checkout every other Tuesday and I will do my best to post it as well as remind students to bring their books back to school.
