Let's Celebrate Making Mistakes!
Today we had a great class discussion about the importance of making mistakes and being able to learn from our mistakes. We watched this short video - from a Growth Mindset series - to reinforce the concept.
Home Learning Suggestions
Beginning in October, a monthly calendar will be sent home with students that include daily "Home Learning Suggestions". The activities listed on the calendar support the thinking and skills that are being developed in the classroom on a daily basis. The calendar is not expected to be handed in at the end of the month. Its purpose is to provide students with additional opportunities to further develop their skills at home. In addition, students are encouraged to read daily.
Additional Supplies
A big thank you for all of the school supplies that were sent in at the beginning of September! I have had a few parents ask me if there is anything else we could use. Being that we are in a portable, I would welcome any donations of either hand sanitizer or baby wipes/wet ones. Thank you again for your support!
Allergies
When packing your child's lunch, please keep in mind that we have students in our classroom with severe allergies and avoid sending in the following:
- pecans
- peanuts
- nuts
- eggs
- fish
- shellfish
Thank you for your cooperation in this very important matter!
