wonder: first steps of knowledge
"Wonder is the feeling of the philosopher, and philosophy begins in wonder." -Plato
Announcements for this Week:
please bring a water bottle for your child! It is very hot and we want to keep them hydrated!
keep dress code in mind :) No leggings or biker shorts may be worn alone
no toys should be brought to school- that includes keychains, little plushies, pencil toppers, Pokemon cards, etc. Our goal at BFCS is a learning environment free from distractions and this helps to keep it that way! Please note if your child does bring a toy and it is removed from the backpack, I will ask them to put it back. If it's brought out again, I will hold onto it and a parent may request it back at the office.
picture day is August 20 and our ice cream social is August 21! Hope to see you there :)
Home Support:
encourage your child to work carefully and check their work at school. I encourage this by setting a timer during tests that students MUST check their work during that time. Remind them to check carefully even if they think they know it!
Virtue Focus: Wonder in Learning
Talk about things your child wonders as they learn. Encourage deeper questions about topics, books, academics.
current teacher read aloud:
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling
