Supply Donations
Thank you to all who have paid the $20 classroom supply fee! If you haven’t yet paid for your child’s classroom supplies, you are still able to do so at the front office. We know that offering this service is very helpful to many of you, especially during the busy back-to-school days, and we hope to be able to continue to do this. However, we will not be able to do so if we cannot recover the cost of the supplies that we purchased for students.

Scholastic Book Orders
There was a misprint on the Scholastic flyer that went home with your child. Friday, September 29th is the last day to submit orders for Scholastic books. If you’d like to place an order, there is still time!
You may place your book orders online using the class code: H3H9F
Every purchase made using this code helps our classroom earn free books!

Weather
Fall is my favorite time of the year! Beautiful colors, cozy sweaters, and FOOTBALL! Our weather is, undeniably, getting cooler. Please make sure your child comes to school ready for the weather. We will go outside in the snow or light rain. We will only stay inside if it is raining hard enough for students to get soaked, or if the temperature is below 20 degrees. If your child needs to stay inside from recess, please send a note to school daily. We monitor the Air Quality Index, and sensitive groups will be allowed to stay in during days of poor air quality.

Homework
READING: You guessed it- 20 minutes of reading! During the week, students need to log on to Google classroom and tell us about the book they are reading. Students should also include at least two questions that they have asked themselves about the book while reading.
PRODIGY:  Last week, Prodigy accounts were created for students who did not have one or were locked out of existing accounts. The kids have their log on information, so please “play” Prodigy for 15 minutes, at least 3 nights during the week.  

Bloomz
Bloomz is the best avenue for quick communication. Messages go straight to our phones, so we will be able to get back to you quickly. If you need any assistance downloading the app or accessing the website, please let us know.

I hope you all had a restful weekend! 
Work hard, be kind
