Things to Know:
BOOK CHARACTER PARADE: Every year we look forward to this Somerset tradition! Kids can dress as a character from their favorite book. It can be as easy as dressing in all one color to be a crayon from The Day the Crayons Quit as an example. Some other fun ideas are: a character from Curious George, Little House on the Prairie, Fancy Nancy, Pete the Cat, Elephant and Piggy, etc. Have fun!! Students can wear or bring a simple book character costume to school, and the accompanying book. Let me know if you need to borrow a book from our school or classroom library!
MYSTERY READER: We are in need of Mystery Readers for the remainder of the school year! If you haven't had a chance yet, we'd love to have you or another loved one join us and read a book! Please click on this link to sign up. :-)
PAPER TOWEL ROLLS: We are beginning to learn more about place value in numbers greater than 100. It sounds strange, but we are in need of empty paper towel rolls for a project to help us do just that! If we can gather enough for every student, we will be making number scrolls. Students will add a paper to their scroll for every hundred numbers that they write. We will all celebrate when students can get to 1,000!
Important Dates:
Thursday, March 23 - Book Character parade
March 24 - April 2 - Spring Break
