Class Notes

August 28, 2008

Welcome
It is good to see all the students back this year,
as well as, welcoming new faces to our class
room.
We are close to completing our classroom
placements tests in reading, math and spell
ing. I hope to have results to you before the
end of September. The class is excellent and
we have a wonderful new third grade class that
is a superb addition to our rising 4th and 5th
Graders.
This week we have been learning about class
room procedures, about organization of
materials, and the importance of communica
tion with each other. We have also been learn-
ing about what a learning community looks
like and sounds like. Speaking of communica
tion If you should have any questions and need

Hot Lunch Program
This year we are going on an adventure. We are adding a new program to our classroom curriculum, entitled Practical Arts. Each week I will work with a group of students in preparing and serving hot lunch to the school on Monday’s. Students will be acquiring skills in service, applying basic math and science concepts of measurement, mixing ingredients, etc. I need your help! If you are able to volunteer, donate food, materials, assist in clean up, etc. anything you do will be greatly appreciated. Our start date is September 8, and we will be alternating between Sloppy Joe’s and Chili/Cornbread each Monday.
