There are a number of big events happening this week. Back-to-School Night is this Thursday (Sept 18th). Please join me for one of two short presentations about what to expect from this year at 6:00 and 6:30 p.m. in Room 15. The Lava Beds trip is this Friday (see the post below for important details). And, the kids are starting to collect sponsors for the upcoming Jog-a-Thon PTO fundraiser (there’s a reason CPE has an electronic whiteboard in every classroom, security cameras protecting our kids, and a ton of field trips every year). In class, students are studying bats, the Modoc Wars, the concept of “theory,” and multi-column addition and subtraction. Here’s the math homework for this week: Monday, Sept. 15; Tuesday, Sept. 16; Wednesday, Sept. 17; Thursday, Sept. 18.
