Monday and the week

Happy Monday all! Welcome to the first full week of school. The kids were on the grumpy side this morning, no doubt getting used to waking at the crack o' dawn. Please make sure everyone is getting decent sleep and EATING breakfast.

Green folders accompanied each student home today. Please read through the materials, sign what is necessary, and return it to school no later than Friday. (Be sure to initial that you received the folder each week.) Please remember that despite the notice to the contrary being sent home in the Green Folder, our classroom Back-to-School Night will be Wednesday, August 29th @ 6:30.

The students will be quizzed on vocabulary this Friday from "Island of the blue Dolphins". They can also expect an "Island" quiz and a "Matilda" quiz at some point during the week.

Respectfully, Mr. B
