Looking Back on the First Week

At the end of the day today kids took time to reflect on and thank those who have helped them have a successful first week.  It is clear from that exercise that students are making new friends and starting to become a classroom community.

Today we also started thinking about our personal goals for how we want to grow and what we'd like to accomplish this year.  We read one of my favorite books, Miss Rumphius, to explore how it's important not to just set goals, but to work toward achieving them.

Today you should find that your 4th grader has a home-school folder and an academic planner.  These items should go home every night and come to school every school day.

Have a great holiday weekend!
