The
blue take home folder is in your child's binder! Please have your
child share these with you. You will see papers in there throughout the
year at random times. Please prompt your child to bring you those items
when they appear!
Ask
your child if he/she is leaving class a lot to get a drink of water! If
so, please send your child with a WATER BOTTLE to keep here in class and refill
each day!
Today's

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR CHILD HAS PLENTY OF PENCILS INSIDE
HIS/HER BINDER!!! Most students do not have pencils each day and this makes
things challenging for them!
