Important Calendar Events: 

Important Classroom Logistics: 

Students will be in both classes each day. We write on our blog each week which class will start with which teacher. This is a 2-5 school wide schedule. Students should bring 2 snacks or eat leftovers from lunch for their afternoon snack. Students are encouraged to bring water bottles with their name written on it. We are okay if they leave them at school. 

Purple (red class) or Yellow (blue class) home folders are going home. Most work is practice work and can be recycled at home. There are sheets about events sent from the school or district. Most of the time the folders return back to school empty; including this week. We accept folders all week, but Monday is always a great day to return it to the class.
