I talked to the students about some of the upcoming events in February. Ground Hog Day is on February 2nd, we will be doing a few activities relating to the day. The 100th day of school falls on the 15th. Students are encouraged to create a 100 day hat at home and wear it to school that day. We talked about all of the different possibilities there are for their hats, get creative mom and dad!!
The next special day is Valentine’s Day. I sent home a class list so that students will be able to write a card for each of their classmates. We will have a snack and a Valentine movie on that afternoon. The parent rep will call a few parents for snacks and water bottles.
We have a fieldtrip to Home Depot coming up on February 9th. As part of our building unit, we will be constructing a bird house. We will need as many adult helpers as possible. Thank you to the parents who have already indicated that they will be joining us. Please check the "Fieldtrip" link regularly to see the upcoming fieldtrips.
Please note the link for monthly homework. This is strictly optional for students. If your child wants to participate, they can use a notebook or scribbler to complete the daily activities and I will accept them whenever they are turned in. This is not meant to add more to your already busy schedule. It is merely for those who are looking for school related activities for their eager child. Also, please note that I am in the process of reconstructing the calendar format. (Please bear with me!)
Please check the "Important Dates" link to see what is coming up this week. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the above information. Have a great rest of your weekend!
Dates to remember:
Jan 25 - Grade 4 Toy Sale (If interested, please send money with your child.)
Jan 30 - Professional Development Day - no school for students.
