Thank you Mrs. Bonnie for helping our students!

Mrs. Bonnie is our wonderful paraprofessional who works with the students in our classroom.  Recently the students wrote letters to Mrs. Bonnie thanking her for the various ways she has made a difference in our learning.  The letters will be made into a book for Mrs. Bonnie, but you can take a peek at them by clicking the "Thank You Letters" link, the last item listed in Mrs. O'Connell's Locker.

FIELDTRIPS 2009-2010

We'll have some terrific field trips in third grade.  We'll be visiting Chabot Space and Science Center, Forest Home Farms, Tassajara One Room School House, and Guide Dogs for the Blind.  These trips build on the learning that takes place in class and are richly rewarding for students and chaperones alike.
