Celebration Time!!

Yippee-we earned our 25th Compliment Point today so that calls for a "celebration". We got it from Ms. Buss which is awesome as we have been working hard on this which happens to be our "manner motto" this week. If your child can tell what it is, write manner motto in the planner for free money. I will be bringing in treats sometime this week and we will do a teamwork game or activity. Great job Team Hankins!! Now we are on our way to earning 25 more.
Just a reminder that we will be having our "auction" this week to spend that fake money. It is looking like we will be having it on Friday. Those that bought into the jail field trip and have extra money will be able to participate.
Today we started our train tour of the NE. If they can tell you a fact about West Quaddy Head, write WQH in their planners for free money. Students also got their write-on/wipe-off maps to practice these at home. The test on these will be on Wednesday, October 12th. They will need to know the names and locations.
Making Change in Math-this concept is posing a bit of difficulty for some, but I don't want them to get frustrated as they will get it as we practice practice.
Book orders went home today. Remember if you order on-line our classroom code is: GZN8L. Thank you-these are due on Monday, October 10th.
Also, today we started our computer programs of ReadAbout & Success Maker.
Thank you and have a great night.
