Math Homework Today

In class we are working on multiplying large numbers. We have been working on a few strategies in order to assist with this. Your child has math homework tonight in which they have been asked to use the strategies they have been taught in class. Below is a link to a site that we have used in class. Please remember that students also have their math journals that should be used, which have steps and examples. Their journals need to come back to school everyday.

Tiger Trot Update
We are a little over a week away from the Tiger Trot and we can't stress enough how much PTA needs YOUR help! The $35,000 we raise allows PTA to support every classroom. It pays for teacher grants for classroom supplies, educational grants, and school area supports as well as the traverse climbing wall for the gym.  The Wallace/Rice Blazers are ready to run! Please set up your child's account and get the donations rolling in!

Strong 4 Life

The Strong 4 Life Challenge team is coming to your school soon!
We all want happy, healthy kids. But as a busy parent, helping your kids eat well and stay
active can be a challenge. At Strong4Life, created by Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, our
doctors, nutritionists and wellness experts create fun, easy ways to help your kids eat, move
and live healthier.
Getting—and staying—on a healthy track isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. That’s why
Strong4Life has specialized programs for kids to reset and recharge through nutrition and
activity. Children and families across the state of Georgia have participated in our programs—
including our exciting Strong4Life Challenge program, which is coming to your school.
Strong4Life Challenge basics
The Strong4Life Challenge includes two school visits held over the course of one school
year, during which time the Strong4Life Challenge team delivers messages that are energetic,
cool and kid-friendly.
The program will kick off with a 45-minute schoolwide pep rally (which generally takes place
in the fall) and conclude with a follow-up visit in the spring. Each student will participate in
the pep rally, and will receive a Strong4Life Challenge water bottle and T-shirt during the
school year.
We need your help!
As parents, you have the ability to influence your child’s habits. Help us by reinforcing the
four Strong4Life Healthy Habits at home: make half your plate veggies and fruits, be active,
drink more water and limit sugary drinks, and limit screen time. And please join your child in
becoming Strong4Life!
For more information on how to be Strong4Life at home, visit Strong4Life.com.

We are excited to announce that Mrs. Hoffman has joined us to fill in for Mrs. Rice while she is on leave. Today was her first day with us and we just know that the transition will be a smooth one.

Talent Show Announcement- Talent show auditions have been moved until after Thanksgiving break.  K-2nd grade will audition after school on Thursday 12/1/16.  3rd-5th grade will audition after school on Friday 12/2/16. Permission slips are still due Friday November 11th.  If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Stewart (Rachel.Stewart@cobbk12.org).


Please do not allow your children to bring in left over Halloween candy unless it is for Operation Gratitude. The last day to donate is tomorrow.
