Water Bottles and Snack

What a great first day in room 21! We sure kept busy all day. Students got to know each other, write about their summer experiences, learn classroom and school expectations, hear a story, Lily's Purple Plastic Purse, paint radial flowers, take a math assessment, and listen to a read aloud by Roald Dahl, The Fantastic Mr. Fox. Whew! We were all tired but happy at the end of the day.

With the weather being so warm, please have your child bring a water bottle to school. Also, please send a snack with your child daily.

I want to compliment the entire class on their hard work and positive behavior. This is a great group of students! Thank you, parents, for all your support!
