Even Start Program
Barcroft Elementary School
Announcement #1: Today we are doing scrapbooking again at 10:30, like on Friday.
Announcement #2: Tomorrow you will have a substitute teacher. Her name is Jennifer and she is very nice and a very good teacher! I am going with my mother to chemotherapy tomorrow morning.
Announcement: Today a woman will be coming to observe the class. Her name is Kenwyn Schaffner. She is the Vice Principal of Randolph Elementary School. Please say "Good morning" to her and introduce yourself!
Instructions: At 8:50, please stop writing in your journals. Please write a question for Ms. Schaffner in your notebook. The question can be about her job, her family, or about the observation--anything you want (but not too personal!). Melanie will check your questions.
Thursday, June 2
Announcement #1: Please remember to be VERY quiet in the halls today because the children are taking the SOL's (very important tests).
Good morning!
Special Message: Please go to the CNN web site (see link below) and choose one news article to read. After you read it, send me an e-mail message to tell me the main idea of the article. Good luck!
Good morning! I feel much better today. I still don't feel great, but at least I don't have a fever. Thanks for your patience yesterday.
Today our journals were about cleaning a home when you have young children. Look at this link. Look at the pictures and read the captions. What is the problem? Write what you think in your notebook. Prepare to tell us in class.
