Happy Thursday!

Sorry for the late post tonight. I had lots to do after school this afternoon. Thank you for your patience. I am seeing lots of fun comments from classmates about book projects. Make sure and check if your partner left you any messages. I think book clubs were a success again today. We had some great discussions about the authors of our books, and if we could glimpse any part of the authors' lives in what we are reading.

Tomorrow morning is the first newspaper meeting of the year. It starts at 9 a.m. in Mrs. Missy's old room. I can't wait to hear all about the many ideas you have for the first FPA newspaper.

Sign ups for my running club are on the gym door, and on the glass doors to our room. It meets every Tuesday and Thursday starting on October 21. Sign up and come for any or all of the meetings. Runners of all ages and levels are welcome. Any parents who would like to run with us, are more than welcome.

Our week flew by so quickly. Tomorrow we will work more on our persuasive letters, finish our weekly math contracts and do some cooking. Get ready for a fun Friday.

Homework for tonight: Read for 20 minutes, work on book club packets, pop up books due Monday, finish math if you need to. Remember to turn in recorder order forms by Wednesday, October 15th. Book orders are due tomorrow.

PS. Have you had discussions about what Mix It Up classes you are interested in taking? Forms are due by Monday!
