Dear Parents,
We’ve had a busy week studying for and taking our Nonfiction unit test
in Reading, finding and selecting a focus for our first essays in Writing,
ending our Science chapter with a review activity, and finishing up our
mixed numbers module in Math. Next week, students will test on
Module 6 in Math on Wednesday, begin a research project in Reading,
continue to develop our first essays in Writing and begin the study of
our country’s Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Here are some notes about the Valentine’s Day festivities at school
next week:
Our party will take place on Thursday, February 11, 2016 at 9:00 10:00 a.m. Our parent volunteers, Mr. Klee, Mrs. Henning, Mrs. Eterno,
and Mrs. Rough have a great party planned, and the PTO will supply all
food for the celebration including cookies, applesauce, Pringles, and
water. Please respect our request to not bring in or attach treats to
valentines.
On Wednesday, students will make a special valentine bag to hold the
valentines they receive. We will exchange valentines the first thing on
Thursday morning before the party begins. I’ve attached a valentine
list to this email.
Valentine’s Day is also an early release day. Students will be dismissed
at 12:50 a.m. immediately after lunch. Remember that Friday is an
Institute Day and Monday is President’s Day—no school. Enjoy the long
weekend!
Have a great Super Bowl Sunday!
