Mrs. Burch's Weekly Update (1/6)

Happy New Year!! We had a fun, short week! We set goals for 2023 and jumped into new content for quarter three! Book orders came home yesterday. Book orders are due online by 1-12-23 at NOON! clubs.scholastic.com (class code: GZKBK). Report Cards will be available online 1/10/2023.

I know the weather is wonky but if it's going to be cold, PLEASE make sure your child brings their winter gear each day, along with a change of shoes! Many kiddos are coming to school with only vests or sweatshirts--no coats! We need to make sure kiddos have gear to play outside in the winter. PLEASE remind them they need their gear. ALSO, having a change of clothes in a bag in their locker is also a great idea! Some families find it helpful to leave a pair of snowpants and boots at school. Whatever works for your family is great!

Here are The Wild Robot links in case you need them!
