Up for Adoption

Yes, you did read it correctly. I have our class up for adoption on the Adopt a Classroom web page. I am hoping to get some funding for the Premium version of Spelling City. I wish that I had the ability to fund this, but right now I can't swing it. If you are interested in checking out our adoption page or helping with funding please click HERE

Today we also welcomed a new student to our class. We are all looking forward to getting to know her a little better. We know that our new friend will enjoy being one of Mrs. Richard's Roses. 

Computer Lab was extended today and we were able to learn about a new program called Fast Math. This program will help us to make all of our math facts FAST. I am hoping to make this part of our daily math time in the next few weeks. We also spent some time on RAZ Kids and working one-on-one with Mrs. Richard on the PALS test. I hope to conclude the PALS testing in the next few days. Look for the results to come home with your child's interims in October. If you really need to know sooner, please send me a note in your child's SEED Binder. 

Thank you to our parent volunteers who have been very helpful at school and to those offering to help with some "at home" projects. If you are interesting in helping our classroom in some way, please let me know. We can always find you something to do in our garden.

  1. Emmy came home today raving about "Fast Math"! She even tried to get to it on our computer, although it wasn't reachable. Nina and I will be donating towards the Spelling City membership - we feel like we have to. Over the last year we have used it almost every night to help study the weekly spelling words.

    She also told us about her new classmate.

    Good luck with the testing this week, our fingers are crossed! Cheerio!
