We are currently in our annual canned food drive against Spring Hill! But, each of the grade levels here are also in competition. The grade level that wins will get their phones at lunch until Christmas break! 6th grade is lagging behind a bit, so I am going to sweeten the deal. I will give 5 bonus points to any test grade for every 10 cans a student brings up to 15 points. So, bring 30 cans and you can have 15 points added to any test grade for this 9 weeks!

Let’s go 6th grade!

Here is a great reminder of why it is important to read for 20 minutes each day!

Hey everyone!

Each year, I allow all students to check out any book they want, so that means my library is well loved. Sometimes the books are loved so much they wear out, and some of them never find their way back home to my shelves by the end of the school year. All of the books in my classroom were purchased by me or donated by students or other wonderful teachers.
If you would like to help keep our room stocked with wonderful books, please take a look at our Amazon wish list for a few ideas!

Thank you!
