Good News!

No, your child wasn't making things up when they came home and told you that Mrs. Ettinger is
having a baby! :) My family and I are very excited. My due date is May 9th, so we have plenty of
time to get lots of learning in before Baby Ettinger arrives! It was also our daughter, Ella's 1st Birthday
this week! So, that was fun too! A lot to be thankful for this year!

New Reading Counts Goal

With the new trimester starting on Monday, Nov. 5th, comes new goals!
Every trimester, we reset ourselves back to zero points, and begin earning points again.
So, your child will start back at zero points on Monday, and will need to earn 18 Reading Counts
points for this trimester. I will send home in their report card what they achieved for the 1st trimester.
They set new goals in their data notebooks for the upcoming trimester.
Hopefully they are getting the hang of Reading Counts and how it works by now.
