Weekly Update for January 30th-February 3rd, 2017

Dear Parents and Families,
Happy Friday! We had a great week in the classroom, the pet rock projects that came in were so very creative and they added some fun and humor to our week. We began a new writing unit this week in which we will focus on writing an autobiography. Each student constructed a time line of events in their life and today will come home with interview questions that will need your assistance. The questions will help the student and myself with dates on your students time line such as birth, the event your student chose to write about and also a picture when he/she started third grade and one from their birth. Please know I will keep each student's photos that are sent to school in a safe place and they will be used when students share their writing piece. Thank you so much for your continued support from home, your support is a huge part of our success. One other announcement, communication folders will go home today.  If  you have a daughter and she is planning on attending the father/daughter dance tonight, the picture form will be in the communication folder.  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and I look forward to another great week at Lake Carolina Elementary Upper Campus.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Knight

Weekly Update for January 16th-20th, 2017

Dear Parents and Families,

We had a wonderful week in the classroom. Our week started with the welcome of a University of South Carolina Student Teacher,  Brianna Lockaby. Ms. Lockaby will be student teaching in our classroom until April. The students are warming up to her nicely and I am super excited to have an extra set of hands to help! Aside from meeting our new student teacher, another high light from the week was our field study with Fossil Frank. Fossil Frank introduced us to his extensive fossil collection while also giving students the opportunity to dig for their very own fossils. Looking ahead to next week, Monday is a school holiday in observance of  the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr holiday. I hope you all enjoy your extended weekend and I look forward to another great week at Lake Carolina Elementary Upper Campus!

Sincerely,
Mrs.Knight

Dear Parents and Families,

Needless to say, the students were beyond excited about the chance of snow today in the classroom. Despite all the excitement, the students and I managed to end on a productive note! It was great to be back with the students this week and I have to brag, they did an excellent job of getting back to the school routine. I am certain that next week will be a productive one as well as long as the snow, if it makes an appearance, causes no delayed start times. I will notify you all immediately as soon as I hear any information regarding a delayed start. I hope you all stay warm and safe and have a wonderful weekend!

Sincerely,
Mrs. Knight
