10-30-12 Daily Update

Parents,

We completed a fun activity in Science today.  It allowed us to, in the name of science, break a school rule for about 10 minutes.  Ask your child what that school rule was.  Also, ask him/her what we learned from the activity.

Tomorrow is the pizza party for students who earned 100% of the first quarter reading goal.  I will also be awarding AR prizes for students who exceeded certain percentages.

Grade cards will go home tomorrow.  The envelopes should be signed and returned on Thursday.

Reminders:

• Conferences are Thursday, November 1 and Monday, November 5.  See my previous e-mail for times.
