Zearn.org- Please make sure your child is completing 4 Zearn lessons a week.
Starting next week, we will be having weekly timed multiplication tests. Look out for a letter going home about this. This letter will entail ways to help ensure your child’s success!
3rd graders will be heading to Lansing come March. So with that in mind- Mrs. Robey and myself would love it, if all 3rd graders could wear the new Lindbergh shirts! We could show off with pride our two accomplishments- Lighthouse school status and becoming a Blue Ribbon school!
Thank you to those that already placed their order.
Also, there is only one color, which is Royal for all shirts. Apologies for the mis-communication on the order form. If you need another order form-I have attached it here. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1ldpbkdROx4U09wMVljYWhLX09wTzVheUdUclczc014ank4/view
Order forms are due 1/14/20.
Homework tonight~ Our next at home family project for Leader in Me are Snowflakes. As a family, please fill in the snowflake on how you fill each others emotional bank accounts. Make sure your child cuts out the snowflake and writes their name on it. Please return, as soon as possible. Thank you!
Homework~ A “new” yet revised district mandate was implemented last month. It is all 3rd graders will be able to write in legible print and cursive. In order for my students to move on to cursive. We are having a refresher in print! Tonight, I am sending home the letter b, uppercase and lower case. Please go over this with your child. Thank you in advance for this.

Today, Jan. 7, 2020.
Lindbergh is proud to have earned both Blue Ribbon and Lighthouse status this year! None of this would have been possible without each and every member of the Lindbergh community flying the spirit of success together. For this reason we thought it would be nice to have new shirts made to show our Lindbergh pride! Please complete the order form if you are interested in any of the items and return it to your child’s classroom teacher with the correct amount in cash by Tuesday, January 14, 2020. All shirts will be in the color royal blue to symbolize our prestigious Blue Ribbons status!

I sent the form home tonight. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Mrs. Currie
