Joan Martin Weekly Update

College Go Week was a great week at Joan Martin! Looking ahead at the future students participated in several different spirit days celebrating the many options they have ahead of them. Our 4th graders were able to head over to Hobart High School and learn about all the opportunities they will have there at Hobart University and our 5th graders participated in a Zoom Meeting with our superintendent looking at the High School Course Catelog and learning about all the classes and opportunities as well.

All students participated in a Anti-Bullying Presentation and learned about kindness and how to be a good friend to others. Students got to spend time with Mrs. Caddick, Mrs. Roth, and Corpral Webber during these presentations. These presentations also tied into our SEL lesson this week from Mrs. Matthys talking about how we need to learn to acknowledge our feelings and then THINK before responding to situations and also considering others feelings as we respond.

Students were nominated and recognized for demonstrating what it means to be a Brickie and for showing how to do the W.O.R.K.

Week of 9/26/2022 Winners

Art - 4th Grade Mrs. Extin

PE - 5th Grade Ms. Sieffert

Library - 3rd Grade Ms. Reardon

These classes demonstrated that they knew what it means to be a Brickie by following the Code of Conduct and Class Procedures! They were chosen by the teacher as the Class of the Week! They recieved a Traveling Trophy to display in their classrooms, a Yohan Sticker for the classroom door to track their winnings, and each student recieved a ticket to enter into the PBIS box!

Way to Be Excellent On Purpose!!

Students should have brought home a Veterans Day flyer this week. Please make sure you read over and submit the bottom portion if there will be a guest attending. We would also like and Joan Martin Family members that are Veterans to be honored in the slide show. Please email Mrs. Williams the information listed below. All items need to be recieved by 10/28 in order for us to prepare for our Program.

We know the students are excited to play on the new playground, however we need to make sure if they are car riders they know they are NOT to run to the playground while waiting to be picked up. We have announced this to students this week, but are still having some sneak over there. It is important that you help us with this. We are completely okay with parents parking their car and walking to the meeting place near the loading dock road to meet up with their child and walking to the playground together. Please understand we do not have an adult available to supervise this area, as we are all covering different areas of dismissal.

New Dates for these trips will be coming soon. Please continue to send in permision slips and the $1.00 for transportation as well as going online to the Dunes Learning Center site and registering there.

The School City of Hobart uses Remind to communicate with families via text messages and/or phone calls.

What are some ways that we use Remind?

• District News- Weekly newsletter, emergency closings, and other important information
• Class Reminders from Teachers - Events, tests, homework, due dates
• Announcements and Celebrations
• One-on-One Help
  
  

If you have not been receiving our messages and would like to, please reach out to your student's teacher for their Remind class code, which you will then text to 81010. For example, if you wanted to join a class with the class code @math, you would text @math to 81010.
