Class Reward

On Thursday, December 9th, during our “free choice time”, we will be enjoying a reward earned by our class. The students may bring an electronic device. They may choose to bring I-pods or hand-held electronic games such as Game-Boy DS and PSP. If they choose to bring electronics, they assume responsibility for the game’s safety, and it must remain in their backpack until choice time begins. The games will not be allowed out at recess or in the classrooms until that time. Additionally, all games must have an “E” or “E-10” rating. No Teen or Mature games will be permitted. If you have any questions about this “celebration”, please feel free to call me at school or e-mail me.

Students who elect not to bring an electronic will either work with someone who has brought one or use a laptop computer.

Thanks!
