Rosa Lee Carter Elementary Ashburn, VA October 5, 2015 [email protected] Miss Adams’s Classroom Note from Ms. Adams With one month down, we are well into this school year. Thank you for all of your continued support! From sending in materials for science experiments (Chex mix snacks), to ordering from our first Scholastic book order, to signing those agendas every evening, you have helped your child and Room 32 kick off a successful year. Now that the students and I have established our routines in the classroom, I will be looking for volunteers to help out with classroom jobs, copying, and small group work. If you are interested in volunteering, please send me an email with your availability and preferences. I look forward to welcoming you into our classroom during the day! Our Bring Your Own Technology Initiative has had a fabulous start in Room 32! There have been a few minor hiccups, but I appreciate your continued support and help at home with downloading certain apps. If you have not downloaded these free apps, please do so, so that your child may use their device for games and assessments.
