We are Two Buildings, One School!
Library Book Return Update
There will be no more books checked out of the library, so the books can be inventoried. The first class at GFS and at JWL to return all of their library books will win a prize! Here are our current standings for the books still outstanding by grade level.
Kindergarten - 8 Books - Getting there!
First Grade - 4 Books - Almost there
Second Grade - 3 Books - So close
Third Grade - 1 Books - Heading in the right direction
Fourth Grade - 19 (from 43) Books - We are getting there!
Fifth Grade - 21 (from 39 Books ) - You are getting closer to zero!
Please help us get to zero. Remind your students to return their books.
Digraphs, Blends, and "The Dock"
One of our First grade WINN groups practiced their digraphs and blends by reading “The Dock”. (And coloring in their books for Fun Friday!)
Making a Basket of Syllable Types.
Grade 3 WINN group reading words on notecards and “making a basket” to sort them into syllable types!
Update from the Nurse for 5th Grade Parents
Parents of current fifth graders, please be on the look out for a letter coming home from the nurse's office regarding information and the requirements for going into Middle School
Get Your Yearbook
Parents can still order a yearbook, it may be shipped to their house or the school depending on when they order it, but if they order sooner rather than later it will be here before the end of the school year. There will be no extras for purchase at the school this year, so if anyone wants one they should order it now. :)
