Together, we can do so much.

I sit here writing this newsletter while completely exhausted. I spent time this weekend learning a flash-mob dance online, and then drove to Chelmsford to perform it on Sunday.
We performed a pink-glove dance in order to raise awareness and research funding for breast cancer. Such a great experience, and for such a great cause!
Hopefully you’ll forgive me if I cut this newsletter short. If you want to learn more about the pink glove dance, and other efforts to raise awareness for breast cancer, please visit:

Our writing lesson this morning included a whole-class collection of words to use instead of “SAID”. Check out the impressive vocabulary of our third graders! Bravo!
