Talking to Children About the News

I came across this "all inclusive" article on the PBS.org website and thought I would share.

Our hearts, thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the Sandy Hook community in Newtown, CT.

Monthly Book Orders

Book orders are placed once a month. When sending in a book order please be sure that it has your child's name labeled on the form and that it is sealed in an envelope with the correct dollar amount. Cash is acceptable (I can send in a check for you) or checks can be made payable to Scholastic Book Clubs. You can also order online (much easier)! You may register (if you do not have an account yet) or log onto https://clubs.scholastic.com. After registering/signing in, use the parent online ordering system and enter my classroom activation code: DQMDD and follow the directions given. Online orders require credit card payment. Most book orders take about two weeks to arrive. Every dollar that is spent on book orders allows teachers to purchase more books for their classrooms for free. Thank you!
