Week of January 28th

Monday, January 28th will be rotation day 1.    

          Due to last week’s craziness (cancellations, delays, Fun Run, and internet outages) we will be continuing our mammal’s project through this week. Fingers crossed that we can get the project done this week! Remember, this has been an in-class project.  Students will NOT have to do any work outside of the classroom. 

          Students have been working in small groups to research their chosen animal.  After reading information about their animal they took notes on a graphic organizer.  Students are currently working on taking these notes and turning them into a Google Slides presentation.  These presentations will then be presented to the rest of the class.  We will hopefully be able to start the presentations on Tuesday and they will continue through the remainder of the week.    

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! Thank you for your AMAZING support of our classroom during the Boosterthon this year!  Totals are stilling coming in, but our class is up to $32 per lap raised!  Not only have you and your friends and family helped our class pay for field trips but we have also earned 30 minutes extra recess for a day!! 

A new book order should be coming home next week for February. 

Please remember to look at the important dates (to the right) for other important happenings in January.   

Remember if there is a snow day, we do not skip that day’s rotation day.  We will continue with the rotation when we return to school.  For example:  If Monday should be day 9 but there is a snow day, then Tuesday will be day 9. 

Please take the time to wash your child’s belongings to help eliminate germs from school.  Remind your child about the importance of washing their hands often. 

Valentine’s Day parties will be held on February 14 from 1:30-3:00.  A letter has come home with your child’s Friday Folder concerning a Valentine’s Day Gram fundraiser for PBIS.  (This is the group that is responsible for helping our students become well rounded, caring people. )

Report cards will come home on Tuesday.
