I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and got to spend some time in the sunshine, especially now that it's not as hot. 90 or 95, even 100 degrees feels A LOT better than 110.
***4th grade is looking for anyone with guest speaking talents. We will learn all sorts of things this year and your special knowledge (or someone you may know) may just assist our learning. If you're job/hobby/interests/connections might be interest to us, we'd be happy to have you share. Just let me know and we can figure out at what point during the year it would be most beneficial.
Reminders:
- Early Release on Wednesday at 12:45.
- Ms. Leining will be out of the classroom on Tuesday to administer a reading assessment. I will still be available via e-mail, but if you need anything please call the office and they will relay the message to your child.
- The first PTA meeting of the year is Tuesday at 6:30. It is a great way to support WBE! If you would like more information, you may visit their website: http://www.wellsbranchpta.org/
- If you haven't already, please sign up for your child's Fall Conference on October 10th. If you are unable to make it on the 10th, there is a place at the bottom of the form to indicate that and I will call you to set up a better date/time.
- We have yet to receive any snack donations. I know many students are unable to bring snacks and I can't tell you how much difference it makes to have full bellies in the classroom. When kids are hungry and their stomachs are growling, it makes it very hard to concentrate, much less learn. Any donations are appreciated. A very easy snack is a box of graham crackers...they're cheap and easy to pass out. Just a suggestion...
