Good Morning Students!
I hope you are all doing well. I have missed you since I started my maternity leave. Rowen James made his arrival on Tuesday, September 25th. He weighed 9 pounds and 8 ounces. I will bring him to see you soon. I have been looking over your grades and I am proud to see that you are doing well in third grade. Keep up the good work!

See you soon!

Love, Mrs. Mack

Grandparent's Day 2012

 

 

 

Grandparent's Day was a huge success. We had about 40 grandparents in attendance. We appreciate all that the parents did to make this event so successful. If you child came home talking about the pie, below is the recipe. It is a very quick, kid friendly recipe that the students enjoyed preparing.

 

No Bake Chocolate Pie from Cooks.com

1 graham cracker crust

1 large package of instant chocolate pudding

3 cups of milk

1 large tub of Cool Whip

 

Mix pudding according to directions. Spoon a layer into the crust. Take one cup of Cool Whip and mix with two cups of chocolate pudding. Pour into the crust. Top with a layer of Cool Whip.

Nico Johnson #35 from the University of Alabama visited SES yesterday. While at Alabama Nico has helped his team win two National Championships. He is a hometown hero! He was here to speak to the third through fifth graders about sportsmanship. It was a great character education lesson. It was so exciting to see so many faces meet their hero!

Thanks Nico for taking time to sign autographs for all the students.

I finally broke down and bought a subscription to Animoto. I hope you all enjoy a peak at our Dr. Seuss week activities.
