Welcome to the month of November in Mrs. Schneider's class. Firstly, I would like to thank you all for attending conferences and IEPs in October. It was really helpful to me to meet with you. We have a lot to pack in to 3 short weeks. Thank you for supporting our school book fair and also a big thank you to Mrs. Northrup for the classroom book donation. Please take time to give thanks this month for all the many blessings we have in our lives. We need to remind ourselves how fortunate we are to live in a country like the United States!
