Week 3 Newsletter

This week was Kindness Week at Mohr! We shared messages of kindness, helped send food to the hungry in Haiti and those devastated by Hurricane Harvey at our Kids Against Hunger packing event, and ended the week with Hippie Spirit Day. It was a wonderful week to be a Mohr Eagle.

Thursday was also our very first Pay Day for our Class Economy. Students were able to learn how to deposit their paychecks, receive their bonuses, or even pay fines! The class had a lot of fun and I can tell they are all really enjoying the program. Our Pay Days will be the last day of each month. Next month, students will begin paying rent on their desks... they better start saving!

Friday was Auction Day! Students were invited to buy or sell items that they handmade. It was amazing to see what everyone brought in, and what people wanted to buy. The cupcakes and origami pieces were hot items! Our Auctions will be held on the first of every month.

We also started our Friday Folder/Progress Reports today. Students will be bringing home their black Friday Folder, all their work from the last few weeks, and a green Progress Report. The schoolwork is yours to keep. Students need to bring their black folder and a signed Progress Report back to school on Tuesday. This will happen every week.

I sent an email home regarding Coding Club this year. If your child is interested in joining, please follow the directions in the email.


Mohr's SciFy Club is open to 4th and 5th Graders! Go to goo.gl/Gq6mPu to sign up.
