When Students are not SOARING For small classroom issues they lose their coins and when they lose all 3 in one day, I will contact you to help address the problem I have an awesome class and of course I’m hoping I won’t have to do this, but Spalding has Behavior Notifications that will be sent home if needed for major discipline issues

I have a wish list on my website, so if we start to run short, I will put needed items here Class fee $8: –includes the $3 fee for the agenda and the $5 fee for the recorder (please include your child’s name when sending in money)

Celebrity of the Week: Each week a new “star” will be selected to be the center of attention. I’m hoping to make this different from prior years, but this requires more help from you. I would like students to make a video of themselves to show in class.
