Sept. Book Orders

Please, please, please be checking BEE Books, Dojo, and emails for communication. 3rd graders dont use
assignment books, so that is how I can keep you in the loop! *Also, it lets you know when your student
may have a homework assignment so that they dont miss a grade opportunity.
A huge THANK YOU! to everyone who turned in tissues, Clorox wipes, napkins, and supplies to our
classroom. Trust me, we use them
Special shout-out to Laura Bates and Jami Stevens for helping me cut, glue, and assemble notebook
materials for our third graders! I cant thank you enough!
