Oct. 24, 2012

Quick update: Chip Celebration had to be changed to Oct. 31st, as most of you know, because we couldn't get the cafeteria on the 26th. Students who have not earned enough chips to attend will be in my room, working. Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Adams will coordinate the celebration, with parents helping to decorate the hour preceding the soiree. Please contact them to help!

Classes will finish Harriet the Spy this week and have a unit test next Tuesday or Wednesday. We will begin the 2nd unit, the literature of animals, next week. Students will read in Lit Circles, work on centers and learn about animals in literature, music and art. Vocab starts up again next week, watch for new words on Sunday.

New policy: I am experiencing some disruptive behavior that is becoming bothersome. I have instituted a new policy: When a student disrupts class 3 times by calling out, talking to his or her friends or any other disturbance, I will write that student up and her or she will explain what they are doing to Mr. Gahagan. It costs 10 chips each time a student is written up.
