Welcome to our third week of school! I sent home the book report with a battle of the books list on Thursday. Scholars will be able to checkout books this week. There is always the City Library as well.
I think these first few weeks of school have gone well. I am loving everything about my new group of scholars and am pleased to see how we are connecting as a community. Most procedures have been taught and expectations will continue to be gone over. :)
Pictures from the first week of school! We did a science investigation outside and had some fun doing math with M&M's.
