Thank you Wells Road Families! Together we have raised over $600 to support the victims of Hurricane Dorian.
Yesterday we began a very short three-day campaign to raise funds for the victims of Hurricane Dorian. As a school that promotes compassion, some of the students brought up their concerns and asked to help. There will be students outside the cafeteria for all three lunch-waves from Wednesday until Friday. Any donation would be very helpful! We will collect change, cash, and/or checks. If you are writing a check, please make it out to Wells Road Activity Fund. On Friday, the money will be totaled, and the amount will be split between two agencies. The first is Project Hope, and the second is The American Red Cross. If you are interested in learning more about how this money will be used, please visit their websites for more information. Thank you for your help!
Mrs. Bavol, Mrs. Fleming and Mrs. LaFlamme’s classes analyzed exemplar responses to reading by having a silent annotated conversation. Students were expected to comment on the text and each other’s ideas through writing. It was a great way to examine what is expected for their own reading responses.
Off to a GREAT START!
