Monday and beyond

Howdy all. Lots of information went home in today's Green Folders. Please keep an eye out for notices regarding the the Harvest Festival, School Beautification and other school tidbits. If at all possible, I would encourage everyone to help out with the Harvest festival in any way they can. Amy Jeske has done an amazing job facilitating and chairing this event, and it is a great way for families to connect.

Thanks to those of you who have returned my email regarding Friday's drivers and chaperones. Please remember that all students will need bring a sack lunch for the trip.

We started two new book units today. I am reading John Steinbeck's "the Red Pony" to the class and we are reading Roald Dahl's "James and the Giant Peach" together. Both books will carry us through to the end of October.

Students are responsible for the following work tonight:

-Reading Log (new copy in the Green Folder)
-Math 4A (most completed in class)
-California: Reflections workbook page 17
-Ocean Animal rough drafts (students were given one half hour to begin transferring their ocean animal color draft on to a lined rough draft that I can edit. Rough drafts will be collected on Tuesday and Wednesday and returned to students next Monday so that they can write final drafts for the October 7th due date.)

Respectfully, Mr. B
