Here are this week's happenings:
- Spelling test will be tomorrow (Wednesday) instead of today as scheduled because I had so many kids absent today from the snow and sicknesses.
- A new list will come home tomorrow and that test will be next Tuesday, February 12.
- I hope that you saw the Valentine's day note that came home yesterday. I told you that we will make Valentine's bags in class and that donations of decorations would be helpful, but I found a cute little thing to do with those bags that just uses things we have at the school already so if you can send the $1.00 for me to buy the bags then we will just use supplies here at school to decorate them. I hope that his helps by making them at school. We will have a Valentine's day party next Thursday at 1:00--that's when students can deliver Valentine cards and/or treats to all of their classmates. A list of students was on that note I sent home.
- Most of you have now heard about the 100-book challenge ( if you have been to an SEP conference). This is an optional activity, but one that is easy to achieve if your child is already reading their take-home book nightly. I told you in the note that you can back track to January 17. That would be 12 or 13 school days, depending on when you came to SEP conference that you can already add to your first list.
- We will have library this week because the PTA chose not to have a book fair during SEP conferences. Please find and return any over due books.
- In math and reading we are moving through our unit on Addition and subtraction relationships, the History of the Earth and have started a new book called Kate's book and we are learning about when to double the final consonant when adding a suffix to a root word (hop becomes hopped and jump becomes jumped for example).
Thanks for all you do!
Happy Reading!
Mrs. Armstrong
