Good Afternoon, Parents and 3rd grade students!! We had an awesome first day at HLOE today. Your child is bringing home a fun "get to know you" homework assignment tonight. Please help them to find 3 items to fill the paper sack that will help describe them. You may want to share about your family, favorite pet, hobby or other favorites! Please only one photograph! You may cut out a picture of an item if it is too large to fill your bag ( bike, bat/ball, etc). We will share these tomorrow. Don't worry; we will get the items home as soon as they are shared. It may take on into MOnday. I sent some paperwork home for some of you if I need a signature. Please don't hesitate to call (270-538-4110) or email me (betsy.pickens@mccracken.kyschools.us) if you have questions or concerns. My planning period is 1:30-2:15, if you need to set up an appointment to meet. Thank you for allowing me to share your child this year!
