If you have any extra unwanted candy, we will be happy to take it for our prize box.  Thank you!

A special, spook-tacular thank you goes out to Mrs. Ridgeway, Mrs. Petersen, Mr. and Mrs. Litton, Mrs. Orsette, Mrs. Jaward and Mr. Aun for taking time out of their busy schedules to help us with our Halloween Party!  The students had a great time with the scavenger hunt and enjoyed the yummy snacks while we watched Clifford’s Halloween.  Thank you to everyone who was able to donate a paper product or sweet treat for our party!  I hope that everyone had a nice evening!

The next PTA Meeting is Tuesday, November 1st at 6:15 p.m. in the Media Center.

Thank you.

Good evening,

I hope you are all enjoying your weekend!  Just some quick reminders:

• Students may wear costumes to school tomorrow – no weapons, masks or fake blood please.
• We will have a small party at the end of the day.  Parents are welcome to come visit.  🙂  Due to limited space and safety of all, no younger siblings will be allowed.  Parents, please check in at the office and come to our room at 2:25 p.m.
• If you signed up to send a paper product or treat, please send it by 2:25 p.m.  Thank you!

Have a Happy & Safe Halloween!

Show your Michigan Spirit and wear U of M or State colors today!

Today we had our first 15 minute monthly lesson from the special education staff.  In an effort to educate our Snow students about the disabilities they may observe, we will be having monthly lessons about various disabilities.  We also want to teach sensitivity so that we are including our friends who have disabilities and understanding their actions.  October is ADHD Awareness month and this month’s lesson focused on ADHD Awareness.  Students learned about this disability and were educated why students may act different from them.  When we understand, we can better work together.    You may hear your child talking about a famous person who had ADHD or what it looks like.

We’ve been working hard with following directions and making good choices.  The students have been doing an EXCELLENT job!!!

Today we celebrated with oreos and a dance party!  Wow, some of my students have some great dance moves! 🙂

Good afternoon,

Please be sure that your child is reading each evening.  15-20 minutes is just enough time to sharpen reading skills.  Students do not have to read all of the books that I put in their book bags.  They may also read books from home, library books and/or go on Myon.com.

Please be sure to sign your child’s reading log each evening.  Book bags are due on Fridays.

Thank you for your support at home.
