Safety on the Net

Hi kids! Have you checked in already a few times, waiting anxiously for me to post (write my message)? Well, I did tell you all that I had a parent meeting today so my post would be a bit later, but in before 5. While I will try to post right after school, some days are a bit hectic and it will be later. Thank you for understanding! Here is our homework today:

Spelling - Unit 1 (study list and be prepared for the pretest tomorrow) If your parents have questions about this, tell them I will cover it all at Curriculum Night tomorrow at 6:30. The test over Unit 1 will be NEXT Wednesday and 3 activities of your choosing will be due next Wednesday.

Band/Orchestra letter - Today we had our introduction to the wonderful band and orchestra program here in District 204. You got a pink sheet explaining the program. IF you bring the sheet back signed, you can attend the Prelude (further introduction) program on Friday morning at 8:15. YOU ARE NOT SIGNING UP YET, just getting more introduction to the instruments (you get a chance to hold them all and try them out!!) There are two Prelude sessions to get to know the instruments (this Friday and September 2 from 8:15 - 8:50a.m. ON Thursday, Sept. 9, you get to meet during the day with the teachers and pick your instrument.

THAT'S IT!! By the way, that is our code phrase for the day, "That's it!" Keep it to yourself- tell me tomorrow and earn yourself one Koala Dollar! Also, the first one to tell me what I hung up in the room will earn TWO Koala Dollars!!

WARNING - THE FOLLOWING IS A MUSHY MESSAGE FROM YOUR TEACHER : Today, just two days after meeting you all, I know we are going to have a fabulous year together! The way all of you worked together during our Brain Breaks and our Numbered Heads Together game, I know we are all a perfect fit for each other. I love seeing all the help you are giving each other following the rules of the school and the room and I appreciate all the character you are all displaying with manners and respect for other students, our property in the room, and yourselves! Your previous teachers and parents have done a wonderful job getting you ready for my class! Thank you all and I hope you are looking forward to tomorrow!! Ok, mushy message complete!
