Hello Everyone,
Just want to remind you that we do not have school this Monday, February 20. This is in celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. In preparation for this we have been learning about Dr. King and his life and the great things he did to bring change to our world. We have also been learning and talking about how we can make great changes by the things we do and how we treat people.
Today I sent home a green paper with more information about our upcoming home projects based around STEM week. These are due the week of February 3. On the paper it explains what your child’s project should be on and the date that they should have it turned in so your child can present to our class. Please help your child in the science celebration but try not to do all the work for them. Allow them to practice with you and other family members so they feel confident and comfortable when presenting at school.
I also sent home a copy of the level one-bee spelling bee list. Our school spelling bee will be Tuesday, February 25. I have given each child a spelling bee paper; however, it is not required for them to participate. We will be having a class spelling bee the week before the school one to pick the students that will participate in our school bee. If your child would like to participate, please help them study. They will also be able to practice as a work at school. We will have more information on this next week.
Don’t forget to mark the annual school chili cook-off. It is Thursday, January 30, at 5:30. Tickets are $5 a person. Come enjoy good food and vote for your favorite chili. You will not be disappointed.
Don’t forget to re-enroll your child/children for next school year ASAP.
As always, thank you so much for all you do and all your support. I am continually grateful for the amazing parents we have in our class.
Have a great weekend!
Jalee
