Character Trait - Gratitude
This month and every day, we want to try to help our students get into the habit of being grateful and showing that gratitude to others. Here is a great 25 day Gratitude Challenge to help bring up different topics and ideas of what we can be grateful for in our lives. We would love to hear about your highlights of these conversations.

Language Arts:
Students will describe plot elements, including the main events, conflict and resolution.
Students will revise and edit their personal narrative using different strategies and checklists.

Snacks!
Snacks!
Please pack one NUT FREE snack for your child every day in their backpacks. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide snacks for the class.
Teachers are allowed to have pre-packaged Veggie Straws or Skinny Pop (original flavors) on hand for students who may forget. If you are able, and would like to provide any to your homeroom teachers, we would be very appreciative.

Handle With Care
Handle With Care
A green note when home with your children in their Take Home Folders this week. This is simply to let you know that we understand that the mornings can sometimes be a challenge for students. Sometimes they are anxious or sad about something at home. Sometimes their allergies are giving them trouble. Sometimes they simply are exhausted and need a little extra love and hugs from us. We get it and want to best support your child. If you find that your child is having one of these mornings, please just send us an email and all that you need to say is "Handle with care". We will get the message and be sure to give your child extra support and understanding that day.
Please remind your students that toys must stay at home. Toys, lip gloss, stuffies, and trading cards are not allowed at school, unless otherwise specified by teachers. Thank you!
