October 10 - Octiber 14th

 I would like to say a big thank you to all of you who have provided our classroom with snacks, hand sanitizer and headphones. We now have enough headphones to get started with our listening rotation. I hope that you were as excited as I was to see the rain. My only disappointment was I was going to do half marathon today but  it  was cancelled. 
     We have a busy week ahead of us. I am looking forward to seeing all of you at parent conferences on  Monday. Don't forget that Tuesday evening is the general PTA meeting at 6:30 pm.
