PLEASE utilize the Adapted Minds math website. It is a great resource and I am already seeing improvements in the kids that have been using it. Math facts are especially important in these early grades and practicing those online help to save trees. :)

Mark your calendar for Wednesday January 21st at 6:00 pm. That will be our celebration of learning and we will have much to celebrate!

Also we are in need of some volunteers.
Classroom Supply helper:
Our classroom supplies have proven difficult for our students to take care of and pencils sharpeners are either too hard for our students to use efficiently or they break too easily (we have been through multiple electronic sharpeners). If you are willing to come in weekly and sharpen pencils and organize supplies that would be greatly appreciated.

Class Librarian:
Another time consuming task that our students really need help with is trading out books for their book boxes. It works best when parents can help with that and we have so appreciated the parents who have helped but we need a bit more help. If you are available to come and help with that for 30-60 minutes every week or every other week that would be greatly appreciated.

Crossing guard: 
Crossing guard duties for our class will come again the week of March 23rd. If you are willing to be here to help with that from 8:00-8:20 that would be very beneficial.

Playwright:
Or something like that. I will be honest here, we have mega crew that our class is in charge of coming up in February and I have now idea how I am going to find time to plan that in addition to everything else... SO if someone would like to or be willing to take that I would be much obliged. We have certain criteria and it is only supposed to last about 20 minutes so it is not too difficult but it is presented to the whole school so my hope in asking for a volunteer is that it will turn out better then what I have time for.
