Hi Group Three,
Just a reminder, we have a field trip to ESRI tomorrow. As I mentioned in class, they are a local company that does navigation and mapping software. You can check out their website at www.esri.com
We will be heading to ESRI in the afternoon. ESRI is a company that creates mapping software for student use. We are going to be attending a Student Day that the company has created to introduce students to the software, and to get their feedback on how to improve that software. We will be leaving campus around 12:45 and returning by 3:00. We will have lunch here at school as we normally would, and pick-up should be on time. If you have any further questions about this field trip, please feel free to contact me.
Once again, here are a few reminders about what's coming up in the next week:
Your "secret friend" gifts should be brought to school As soon as possible. They are technically due on Monday the 14th. Please only spend 10.00 at most for this gift. If you've forgotten whom your "secret friend" is, let me know, and I'll email you, or remind you with a note.
Hogan gifts should also be brought in as soon as possible too. If you are the oldest or only child in your family that goes to Clark, I have given you a notice from the office about your Hogan gift. If you cannot find your notice, please email Betsy in the office at clarkschool@clarkschool.com. It's a great thing that we do here each year that brings a smile to the faces of those less fortunate than us.
Have a great afternoon!
See you tomorrow,
John

Wrapping Up The Week
Hi Group Three,
Another week has gone by and we're nearing the end of the first half of the school year. In fact, we we only have two school weeks after winter break and then we're officially into the third quarter! Amazing.
I would like wish a "Happy Hanukkah" to all my Group Three students and their families who will begin their holiday celebration at sundown on Sunday. I wish you and your loved ones all the best.

One Week and A Lot To Do!
Good Afternoon Group Three,
I hope you listened carefully to Laurie today when she spoke about bullying at school. Remember what you should do if you see anything like that happening in the halls, or out at recess, or anywhere at school- let a teacher or staff member know as soon as you can. Remember, you won't get in trouble for reporting it, you're doing the right thing.
We have one week left before our Winter Break! I can't believe it! Just a few reminders as we head into the next week:
Your "secret friend" gifts should be brought to school before Friday the 18th. Please only spend 10.00 at most for this gift. If you've forgotten whom your "secret friend" is, let me know, and I'll email you, or remind you with a note.
Hogan gifts should also be brought in next week. If you are the oldest or only child in your family that goes to Clark, I have given you a notice from the office about your Hogan gift. It's a great thing that we do here each year that brings a smile to the faces of those less fortunate than us.

Sun....and Snow!
Hi Group 3,
Yes, 70 degrees and sunny on Thursday, and now- snow! You have to love New England weather! Just a few reminders about snow rules:
Jackets and hats must be worn for outdoor recess.
Gloves are also recommended
If you want to be in the snow you must have snow pants as well.
Sleds can be brought to school. Please make sure they have your name on them and they are in good condition.
Snow is not to be thrown. Snowballs are not acceptable, even if you're not throwing them at a person.
I hope we can have a happy and safe winter season!
See you tomorrow,

Welcome to December, Hope You Have Your Suncreen.
Good Afternoon Folks,
I hope you had a chance to enjoy the weather we had today. Remember what they say about the weather in New England, "If you don't like it, wait five minutes."
Just a reminder, if you've forgotten your "Secret Friend" Holiday Gift Exchange Person...send me an email and I'll let you know who's name you picked out of the hat. You may bring in your gifts at any time, and we will all open them together at our Holiday Party on December 19.
Have a great night, and I'll see you tomorrow.

My Mind is Officially Blown!
Hi Group Three,
So my mind is still blown from watching that science video from today. I can't believe we can send a laser from Earth all the way to an 18 inch mirror on the moon and have it bounce back to us. Amazing. Remember, science is always changing, and what we think is a fact today, might be proved wrong tomorrow.
I hope you had a great time today at our Inflatable Joust! I must admit, I was pretty happy to have the opportunity to give it a shot as well. David, you're a heck of a jouster, and you got me fair and square! Good job!
Please remember to get plenty of rest, wash your hands, do you best not to throw germs out there (cover you mouth when you sneeze and cough) and stay healthy!
I'll see you all tomorrow,
John
