100 day is here...


Just a reminder that tomorrow, Jan. 23rd, its the... 100th day of 1st grade. We are looking forward to seeing all the kids dressed and looking like they are 100 years old. They have been sharing their "costume" ideas with each other. I will make sure to have my camera ready. I am sure they will be a hoot! I have a few other ways we will celebrate. Can you believe only 80 more days until 2nd grade.

A message from Mrs. P-F


On Wednesday, January 28, 2015 from 6-7 PM we'll be hosting a Common Core Information Night here at Brassfield. We are pleased to announce that childcare will be provided by A.E. Finley YMCA, so you don't even have to get a babysitter. Make it a date night! (How much more romantic can you get than this? I mean, REALLY). 

We are asking that participants let us know that they are coming so that we can be sure to have seating available and enough space to make you all comfortable. We'll be able to gather this information via a quick and easy survey we'd like you to fill out so that we have a little background on your relationship with mathematics and with the Common Core curriculum. Please take a few moments to visithttp://www.socrative.com/ and log in as a student to room e0f9bb19. Note that the 0 is a ZERO, not the letter "o."

If more than one member of your household plans to come, please have each individual complete the survey. Thanks!
