8/14: I want to let you know that we'll be starting a new read-aloud book called "Wonder" next week. Many of you may be familiar with this book from the movie that came out a few years ago. The story is about a boy attending school for the first time after having had several surgeries for a condition he was born with. This book has many themes, such as compassion, understanding of differences, respect, bravery, and friendship. This book is not part of our core curriculum but I've found it really resonates with kids this age. I encourage you to read reviews on Goodreads or any other book review site. If you'd like your child to not listen to this book or participate in the class discussion, please let me know and I will offer an alternate reading opportunity for your child.

If you want to purchase school pictures, please return the envelope with the package you wish to purchase. Everyone will take photos. Please sign up for our 4th Grade Family Math Resource Night! It's going to be a lot of fun!

8/10: Tomorrow popsicles will be on sale for $1.00! If you'd like a refreshing treat, please bring your money tomorrow!

Next week is our 4th Grade Family Resource Math Night! There will be fun activities for all to enjoy. Here is the link to RSVP: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfTYi4NBm8WGFd6BtPWsXd8Bl2ak0hGi6zW9ms8i1rLHjnnrQ/viewform

8/8: Thank you to all who've returned the parent survey and movie permission slip from Back to School Night! If you haven't sent it in yet, please do so by Friday as I'd like to show the movie that goes along with our read-aloud book, "Be a Perfect Person in Just Three Days" that afternoon. This book takes a fun and light-hearted approach to recognizing that being a good person is waayy more interesting than trying to attain perfection. If you did not get a chance to attend Back to School Night, I sent home the information with your child today. If you have any questions, please reach out!

8/7: Thanks to all who attended Back to School Night! I look forward to working with you and your child this year! If you weren't able to attend, information will be coming home in your child's Friday Folder with the information we discussed

Today, I provided water bottles for each student. Tomorrow, you may wish to send a personal water bottle with your child as it will be pretty hot outside! Of course, they can always get a drink from the fountain.

Thursday will be our first PE day! Please be sure to have your child dress for the weather.

I'm really looking forward to meeting parents on Friday, August 4 for Back to School Night! I'm also very excited to meet this wonderful new group of students on Monday, August 7!
