Our Reader of the Week is Jayden M.!

 

This is “Read Across America” week.  Every day this week, there will be a 15 minute time frame when everybody in the school will “Drop everything and Read” (D.E.A.R time).  We will be reading with the 4th graders on one of the days.  We are reading many Dr. Seuss stories and doing writing activities, as it is his birthday this week.  The children may bring in a book from home, or borrow one of the classroom books to keep in their desks.

 

Throughout the school year, each class at Trinity will be “giving back” to the community in some way.  Some classes have raised money for needy families, collected food for food pantries and soup kitchens, collected pajamas for needy children, etc.  Our class has chosen to donate to the American Cancer Society.  We would like to begin by have a Teddy Bear drive to help put smiles on the faces of children who are battling cancer.  We are asking each student to donate a new teddy bear (small or medium sized) and we will bring the bears to be delivered to the children.  Please send in a bear by Friday, March 21st.  Your generosity will be so appreciated!

 

Please make sure that homework is completed neatly and correctly, and is signed by a parent each night.

 

Have a GREAT Week!
