This week students in Mrs. Jenkins' and Mrs. Donnelly's homerooms have been learning procedures they will use all during the school year. These students wrote a rubric for the expectations of reading independently and then got down to the business of READING.
I know you are enjoying Frindle by Andrew Clements that I am reading to you in class. Aren't you interested to find out if the main character, Nick will recieve any money from the sale of all of the items that say "frindle" on them? And aren't you asking yourself if his teacher, Mrs. Granger will stop being upset with Nick? Hopefully we will find out this week. 
Happy Birthday, Nicole. Thank you for bringing cupcakes to share with your new classmates and teachers. We love you already!!!
