Happy New Year!  It is such a pleasure to be back in the classroom with the greatest class!  I am looking forward to meeting with each of you during conferences next week.  You will be receiving your child's report card at that time.  Don't forget school will be ending early Tuesday - Friday, and the following Monday due to conferences.

Many Thanks

Ian's mom presented a fun art lesson on January 9 while I was at grade level planning.  Carter's mom and Daniel's mom were there for additional support.  Thank you for your time and effort!

Carter's mom and Danielle's mom have been our mystery readers so far this week.

Congratulations

Reilly was chosen to represent our class in the character education theme,  compassion.

Upcoming Events

Monday, January 21, is the National Holiday honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and there is no school.

Wednesday, January 23 will be the 100th day of school.  We will be enjoying some fun activities which coincide with this occasion.

Important Notice - There will be a SmartBoard demonstration in room 505 on Thursday, January 31, at 8:15, and all of you are invited.  The children will help me show you the many ways of using this amazing equipment.  This new 21st Century Technology was provided to us through SPLOST funds, and, Mt. Bethel is one of six schools piloting this program.  We are thrilled!
