Ms. Kaley's Classroom Room 24

Happy New Year Everyone!

We had a fabulous week back.  We’re continuing to talk about expectations and grace & courtesy in the classroom.

This coming Friday it is an early dismissal at 1pm. Monday the 19th is NO SCHOOL

Lunch Time

Please pack forks, spoons, etc, that your child needs for lunch.  It is only sometimes that we have these things (like extra from our holiday feast).

The food truck comes Wednesdays, however, this week it was scheduled to come, but didn’t.  We were never sent a schedule, so many children expected it to come.  If you send your child with money on Wednesdays for the food, please pack them a back up lunch for a just in case circumstance.

If your child gets pizza on Fridays, pack them a few other things as well in case they need more.

Things coming up!

In February we have a field trip to The Planetarium.  We will be riding The Front Runner to SLC.  It will be Feb. 18th.  Please let me know if you would like to go.

Towards the end of February, 3rd graders will take their first state test of the year!  Writing will be first.  We are working on getting our schedule for our classroom.  Our classroom does a breakfast for each of the test dates.  As I get further notice on a date, please let me know if you wish to help make breakfast for our 3rd graders in February.

PTC conferences will be approaching soon!  They are February 10th-12th.  Sign ups will go up soon.  There will be a cut off a few days before the first date of conferences.  Please plan ahead, as sign ups will be going up very soon.

Snack

Please look at the snack sign up to see when your date is.

Slippers

Only a few children didn’t have slippers this week, but most of our class does.  I am checking every morning as slippers are part of the dress code.  Ask your child if their slippers are fitting or if they know they have a pair at school.

Newspaper needed!

Our third graders will be making newspaper 3D shapes from kinds of polygons.  If you or anyone you know has newspaper laying around, we need it!
