Please sign the Office Discipline Referral form after reviewing it with your child.

The 4th and 5th grade helped Mrs. Hill set up the new Chromebooks for grades 3and 4.  This involved upacking them and following directions-step by step! We had 1/2 the class helping and the other half reading and then they switched.  It required the students to listen and be patient as well as be independently on task when reading quietly.

Whenever we can, Mrs. Garceau and I think the students should have choice.  An important choice they can make is where to sit during DEAR time (silent reading).  The students have to decide where the best place is for them so they will not be distracted or distract others.  During this time is when Mrs. Garceau and I will be conferencing with students and running guided reading groups.  We are practicing this a lot this week.  Mrs. Garceau and I want to work with the students, not have to redirect them!
