Great Showing of Red Today

Way to show your Red Ribbon Week Spirit Team Hankins!! Yes, we had a great showing of red today for our RRW kick-off. Tomorrow is Twin Day so find someone to pair up with for this one. Remember clothes, hair, etc. have to be school appropriate. We finished our Water Cycle projects today. As you can tell by the pictures, they are a great representation of what we are trying to learn. HOMEWORK part of this is: Story writing-yes, each student is going to have to write a story about their raindrop going through the water cycle. Tonight's first part consists of: writing an introduction. In this part they are to introduce their character-name, setting (location), activities it is doing on their adventure, etc. Have fun and be creative. Mine was only given as an example-please no copying it. Parents- I also need your help with this part. If you would edit your child's writing each night, I would so appreciate it. It will make it much easier for us all to write our final/published copies. It is nearly impossible for me to edit 23 on a daily basis. Thank you in advance. YOu will get to see these amazing projects & stories up at Parent Teacher Conference time. Speaking of conferences-School will be dismissed early (12:00) on Wed.-Friday November 6-8 so if you need to make arrangements you can start planning. I will be sending your conference times home next week so you can plan for them likewise. We as teachers are meeting on Monday after school to set that up. Music tomorrow-the substitute music teacher for Mrs. McKinnsey would like students to have their recorders here tomorrow if they purchased their own. If you ordered one through school, he will have them here for you. Thank you and have a great night.
