Dear Parents,
Blue Jeans go green! A BIG thank you to all who participated in our denim drive. The fourth grade collected 355 denim items that will be donated to the RRISD Clothes Closet. This fourth grade service project was a fun learning experience for us.
Our "Dead Words" will be put to rest on Tuesday, October 31. Students have two weeks to complete this project at home. Complete instructions were explained and sent home this week.
We placed second in the Box Tops collection! We are enjoying the DQ blizzard ice cream treat.
Our character word for October is self disciplined.
Canyon Creek will be hosting TAG Referral Information Night for families interested in referring their students for TAG testing. This night is designed for families whose students are not currently enrolled in the TAG program but are interested in testing. Please join us in the library on November 8th from 6:00-7:00 pm for more information about how to complete the referral process.
Ask your child about their pen pal from Franklin, Georgia. It has been so fun to receive letters from another school!
Your child met their reading buddy last week. They got to know each other by filling out a Get To Know You sheet. 4th graders are responsible for bringing age appropriate books to read to their buddy the first Friday of the month. Friday, November 3rd is the first Friday, so have your child look through their old books and chose some to read to their 1st grade buddy. Students are not allowed to check out books from the library for buddies.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Mary Jo
