Standard Examiner Design-an-ad Partnership

Mar16

Through an opportunity with the Standard Examiner, our class has been partnered with the Farmers Market Ogden and Downtown Ogden Alliance to design an ad.  Students were provided with the parameters and time in class to participate.  We have been working on this in class for the last week, and now it’s time for your child to put the finishing touches on their art at home.

On Friday, your child should have brought home the sheet for their design.  Along with their drawing, your signature is required to allow them to enter the contest.

Please provide time and space for your child to finish this drawing and return it to school Tuesday, March 19.

Several students have already turned in beautiful work.  I’m excited to see what the rest of the class brings in.

Valentine’s Exchange

Feb10

This Thursday is Valentine’s Day.  Our class will be participating in a small Valentine exchange before lunch, February 14.  A list of all students in our class was sent home last week.  Participating in the exchange is completely optional, but if your child brings a Valentine for one classmate, they must bring one for everyone in the class.  When making or purchasing Valentines, I encourage you to follow our school wellness policy.

If your child would like to make a box, bag or some other type of container to collect their Valentines, please plan on making this at home.

As a reminder, this Wednesday, Thursday and Friday is early release for student led conferences.  School will let out at 1:00 pm on each of these days.

 

Thank you!

Feb4

Thank you to those of you who were able to donate tissues to our classroom!  The students appreciate having something soft to use on their noses.

Thank you for supporting last week’s fun run!  I hear we raised nearly $12,000 for field experiences!  That number is phenomenal and we couldn’t have done it without your support.

Don’t forget – Next week is student led parent conferences.  Plan for early release at 1:00pm all three days of conferences – Wednesday, February 13-Friday, February 15.

Please sign up for a time that works for you AND your child.   They will be showing you the portfolio they have put together which will highlight the things they have been working on in class.  As stated in the weekly MMA newsletter, there will be no progress reports issued during February conferences.  Instead, your child’s progress toward mastery of key standards will be shown with work they have personally selected.
