I shared a "small moment" story with Miss Shaw's class this week and our conversation impressed me with  how much they are learning in their Writer's Workshop lessons.  They also gave me constructive feedback on how to improve my story!!!
I have visited all K and 1 classrooms and most 2 and 3 and I am so proud of their learning and work!
 
 


 
Just before the break, Mr. Monti visited Mrs. Adiletto's second grade and conducted a science experiment with dry ice!

Kindergarten Bus Stop Reminder

For the safety of our students, an adult must be visible and present at the bus stop when Kindergarten students are arriving home.
If no adult is visible, the driver will return to the school with the student and emergency contacts will be notified. This can be stressful for your child so please plan to always be out when the bus arrives!

Thank you!

Clothing, shoes, linens, stuffed animals as well as many more items can be recycled in the bin. Visit www.baystatetextiles.com to see a detailed list of what can be recycled.
















Color Cycle: We are participating in the Crayola Color Cycle program this school year. This is a program that allows students to turn dried out markers into fuel. Crayola will recycle any brand marker, including dry erase markers and highlighters. The program is simple. We collect the markers and send them to Crayola. There is a box to drop off dried out markers by the Delaney cafeteria and in the Janelli Annex lobby . To learn more about the Crayola Color Cycle program visit:  http://www.crayola.com/colorcycle.aspx

 Crayons for Cancer: This year we are collecting used crayons to be recycled for Crayons for Cancer which raises funds for kids currently battling with cancer by melting used crayons down into fun shapes and selling them in order to make money for kids with cancer. Collection bins are located by the Delaney cafeteria and in the Janelli Annex lobby. 100% of the proceeds support children's hospitals oncology units, including Hasbro Children's Hospital. Crayons for Cancer proceeds also fill “Treasure Chests” where young patients go to choose prizes after enduring tough chemo/radiation treatments and/or blood tests.

We have won 2 Trex benches in years past. Let’s do it again! Donation boxes are located in the Delaney cafeteria entry way. Items that can be donated are: grocery bags, bread bags, case overwrap, dry cleaning bags, newspaper sleeves, ice bags, wood pellet bags, ziplock & other re-sealable bags, produce bags, bubble wrap, salt bags, and cereal bags. PLEASE: Write the total number of bags on the outside bag before you place them in the collection bin at school!

Our committee is hard at work planning for a new playground. We should have a plan and a fundraising goal by January!  We really need volunteers to work on sub-committees such as fundraising, donor recognition planning, and helping at individual events when the dates are announced. If you are interested in any of these, please email me at wagstaffc@wrentham.k12.ma.us.

Helping out does not require you to be at every Playground Meeting!
