Parents,

Hopefully you have all been able to secure a spot in my Sign Up Genius for a conference.  Meeting with families and working together for your child's progress in third grade is one of my favorite parts of teaching.  I look forward to meeting with each of you soon.

Don't forget that we are having our End of quarter celebration on Tuesday, October 2nd for our EL curriculum.  I hope to see many of you there.

Brassfield has been doing a new school wide curriculum called the Positivity Project.  It is a character education curriculum to help all students (and adults) learn to interact with each other in a positive way.  I have been sending home papers explaining the Character Strength of the week in their Wednesday folders.  Please take a moment and read over the character strength and talk with your child about these.  I am also including a link to the program that should allow you to take a survey about your own strengths.

We have a field trip coming up on October 18th to the Mordecei House.  Please make sure your child has weather appropriate clothing that day as we will be going in and out of buildings that may not have air conditioning.  

Have a great week!

Sincerely,
