Emergency Medical Forms

Families,

Remember Emergency Medical forms need to be filled out for each student.  The district office has made it even easier. You can now complete the form online and print it.  Wow, much easier than writing it all out.

Getting Ready

Working hard at trying to make things look fresh.  I gave the back of our slates a fresh coat of paint to cover the years of wear and tear and doodles.  This weekend I plan on putting whiteboard paint on a few of the really worn fronts. I hope the paint works as well as some of the reviews say.

I plan on using the codes on the back of the slates as a way of forming collaborative groups. I hope it works as well as I hope.

This year I decided to go with a new color scheme. I love the bright colors that are in the classroom. Looking forward to finishing up everything so that it is ready for my fourth graders.
