Check your child's Friday folder and be sure and initial their conduct sheet. I will be updating the curriculum page of my website each time we are learning new objectives. Read that page to find out what we are doing academically. You will also need to read the website page of your child's math and language arts teacher to find out what is going on in those classes. Our class will be doing a lot of recycling this year. We are participating in the Terracycle program where we can earn money for each item recycled. The following are items we will receive money for: drink pouches, candy bar wrappers, chip bags, glue sticks, and old writing utensils. We are also recycling cardboard and plastic which I will take to my house for recycling. Check the website each week to see what we will be doing each week and to find out about upcoming tests and projects.
