Today we had three students from the freshman assists program come in and read biographies to us and talk about how to become a better reader! Students worked on subtraction problems that involved borrowing and identified character traits of  the crocodile from the story, The Christmas Crocodile. Don't forget tomorrow is our Pancake Dinner featuring Santa Clause starting at 6:00 p.m. I look forward to spending time with all of you that are able to attend tomorrow evening. Homework is due tomorrow. Have a great night.

Favor!!

If anyone subscribes to the Detroit free press or news, could I please have your copy from Monday the 10th?? I want to save it as a birthday keepsake for Emma-Kate. I would be so grateful!!

If you have one, please have your child give it to Ms Stocks so she can give it to me. Thank you so so so much!!!!

Baby News!

Hi everyone!!! I wanted to share with you a quick pic of my sweet new baby girl :)

Emma-Kate Elise Stewart
6lbs 14oz and 19 in long
Born Monday Dec 10th at 6:53pm at St John Hospital
She's perfect and healthy! Andy and I couldn't be happier :)

Congratulations Mrs. & Mr. Stewart, as they welcome Emma-Kate. Mrs. Stewart and baby Emma-Kate are doing well. Today the school dentist was here, although they did not get to see all of the students. They will schedule another time and I will let you know when it will be. Students learned about contractions, completed their Gingerbread Person final copy, and received adjusted and/or new guided reading groups. Have a great night

Happy Monday! We had a great day today and students were prepared for my arrival.  Students learned about Kwanzaa, took a survey on our favorite food, and used the data to complete a graph. We also had special guest judges looking at the school doors that were involved in the door decorating contest. We are waiting to hear the results! Remember that student council is collecting change from each class to buy a toy for a child in need. Hope you can help by donating your spare change.
