A Long Weekend

I hope that everyone has been enjoying their long weekend.  The extra day for teachers was very relaxing for me.  I was able to spend some time with my younger sister.  It looks like we are in for two more wonderful weekend days - nice weather, and fall colors.

This coming week is filled with activities.  We are in for some fun! Ms. Sawyer, Mrs. Pokwinski, and I will be helping out the Kindergarden teachers on Tuesday when they are completing some testing.  The Kindergardeners will be coming to our three classrooms for the afternoon.  We will be making crafts with them, reading to them, and enjoying some playtime outside.  I am looking forward to seeing all of my students bond with and be role-modles for the youngest Badger students.

Our class, along with three other intermediate classrooms, will be doing Fall Rotations on Friday afternoon.  We know that our students are going to be very excited for any Halloween activities that might be planned for that night, so we decided to switch our schedule a little bit.  Instead of Math, recess, and WIN,  we will be spending the afternoon rotating through the four different classrooms.  Students in each homeroom are going to be divided up into four groups and send to a different room to partake in various fall activities with other intermediate students (making a healthy snack, creating movie trailers on the iPads, mystery math, and Chromebook fun).  We think that this will be a nice way to end our week together!

Remember to check in with your child after school as often as you can.  Be positive about school and encourage your child to continue to make good choices and follow school/classroom expectations.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
