Good Afternoon,
  I hope everyone enjoyed the first day of Autumn.  Today your child will be bringing home their Weekly News Journal.  Each Friday, the students will write an entry that highlights an event or two from the week.  Your job is to read it with them and then write a quick note back (at the bottom or along the side).  It is a chance for you to hear about their week, observe their writing, and for me to work on elaboration and detail with each student.  I hope you enjoy these journals.  You don't need to edit with your child but are more then welcome to do so.  Please send these journals back on Monday of each week.

  I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Peace,
Tom
