First week. We're back!

It is so great to be back!  We are off to a great start.  We picked up right back up where we left off.

Now for the news everyone wants to know: when does homework start?  Short answer; next week.  Longer answer; this week I will send home a homework survey. It will ask for your thoughts on how homework has gone before and what you find valuable in homework.  As a parent of a fifth grader, I understand the value homework can have in connecting home to school.   And I also get how much of a pain it can be. So, I want your input.  Please look for the survey this week in your child's bag.

The students are really excited about the read aloud book we are reading right now - Where the Mountain Meets the Moon.  Check out this trailer for the book.


As always, please be in touch.  You can feel free to email me, call or text.  And please stop by, the door is always open.
