Day 2 News Bullets

September 3, 2009 | Posted in: Class Updates

  • LAST call for any summer reading logs!  I’d love to see 100% participation!  Remember, all it takes is one book to be a participant, and the list can be written on any paper, not just the official log form.
  • Students MUST bring in their summer memory item tomorrow (Friday).  We need them for a project that we are beginning tomorrow (Friday).
  • Students are asked to bring in magazines or clippings for a personal reflection project next week.  (See flier.)
  • Students have been assigned to bring in one (or more) non-perishable item for a class math activity.  The food will be donated to Gifts of Love (which is in dire need of non-perishable items as well as fresh vegetables).
  • Parents, please complete and return the Parents as Partners information sheet about your son or daughter, even if you completed one for me last year.
  • Parents, please return your child’s early dismissal plan to me, along with the blue emergency medical card.
  • If your child walks or bikes home SOMETIMES, please be sure to send in a note on the days that he or she is doing so.  (This is in addition to the school-required release form.)  If he or she is a daily walker or biker, or if he or she follows a weekly schedule (that doesn’t change from week-to-week) for walking or biking, there is no need to send in a daily note.
  • I have updated the “Policies” page on this website (see the link on the left sidebar).

I’m sure I’m forgetting something.  I’ll post a follow-up message if there is more!  Otherwise, have a great holiday weekend!

    Hey this is very cool. I LOVE seeing technology like this being used in the classroom and with parents. This is really the kind of stuff I am thrilled that Elliot will have some experience and exposure to through out the year. Blogging is a great idea b/c it provides a great little snapshot of what’s happening and saves on the paper loaded into that “scary”(at times) backpack! Thanks for doing this is being so incredibly forward thinking! 🙂
