What do I wear for recess? School rule is if the temperature is below 50 degrees, the students need SOME type of coat or sweatshirt on. In the hecticness of the morning routine, please see if a sweatshirt can be added to their outfit or stuffed in their backpack! Thank you :)

Monday Lunch Helpers: Join us for lunch! We eat lunch in our classroom from 11:30-12:00. You will have an opportunity to meet and talk with your child's classmates in 3rd grade, make sure they stay in their seats until they are finished, and give everyone permission to leave at 12:00. During this time, I will have the opportunity to meet with the other 3rd grade teachers and plan for our instruction.

Thank you for volunteering and please select the dates that work for you! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0a49aaa828a6fa7-monday

"Can Ms. Snoeyink come to my game?": I love to see my students thrive outside of school. If they are in gymnastics, swimming, soccer, baseball, karate, football etc.....I would love to watch and see them shine! If your child expressed interest in this, please let me know the time and location! Thanks :)
