Monday News

Dear Families,


I hope you enjoyed the long weekend. I spent the weekend camping in Groton, Vermont with my family. Without internet or cell service, I was able to be in the woods completely unplugged from my phone or emails. This is the reason for the blog post coming to you so late on a Monday evening.

Last week, we began to establish routines and expectations. We will develop our hopes and dreams for the school year this week; focusing on things we can't do YET.


We will be outside on Thursdays. Please make sure your child is prepared for a day outside every Thursday. This includes appropriate footwear and layers to help your child stay dry and comfortable. A change of clothes is a good idea, too. Sunscreen and bug spray may also be helpful for your child.


Thank you for returning all the paperwork. Please return it this week if you have not already.


First homework assignment due Friday:


The students will be personalizing their writing notebooks. The writing notebook is a place for writers to catch all the inspiration they find in their lives that could lead to a piece of writing.  We personalize the notebook with pictures and memorabilia of important moments, all of which call to mind stories we might want to write about in some form. Collect pictures and magazine clippings to personalize your notebook. Parents may email the pictures to me and I will print the pictures if you’d like.


Class Schedule:
Mondays - Spanish and Library
Tuesdays - Music and Physical Education
Wednesdays - Art
Thursdays - Physical Education
Fridays - Guidance


Important Dates:


  • 9/7, Thursday: Picture Day
  • 9/13, Wednesday: Late Start

Enjoy your week,


Mrs. Carter
