A friendly reminder to monitor your child's clothes as the weather begins to warm up.  Shorts should be past finger tips, shirts should be at least 3 fingers wide (about 2 inches) at the shoulder (no tank tops or spaghetti straps), and we shouldn't be able to see undergarments or bellies.  Many students have had growth spurts since the beginning of the school year and what fit them in Sept. may not fit them correctly now.  Thanks for your support.

We are beginning our simulation of the American Revolution next week.  Please ask your child about these events each day.  Hopefully they'll have lots of fun doing it but it does require them to be a good listener to follow everything going on throughout the simulation.

I finished reading the book Wonder to my ELA classes.  We've talked a lot about being kind about doing the right thing, even if it's not the popular thing.  I have had a few instances lately where some teasing has been occurring and I've spoken to the students who were doing it and used the characters in the book to help make connections to how little comments or jokes can hurt other people.  If you see that your child lost coupons for teasing you may want to talk to them and remind them of the importance of being kind and doing what is right by not giving in to peer pressure.  This is an important skill they need to learn before they get to Middle School.
