Ms. Kaley's Classroom Room 24

Hello!

There has been a SAGE test change date for our class.  The May 10th Math test has ben moved to May 5th.

Conferences

I have 5 families who still need to sign up for Parent Teacher Conferences.  I told your child on Friday too

I am missing:

– Nicholas

– Cael

– Lucy

– Sophia

– Anna

I understand things come up and some families can’t make it.  Let me know if you can’t make it this week and we can meet another time.

Upcoming Week:

I had scheduled the cart of computers for this coming Monday.  However, our class is at a very moody point of the year and they have forgotten even the basics of the classroom (pushing in their chair, putting works away, sitting together as a group quickly and quietly).  It is just time for a reset and going back to review basics (normalization).  I still will be making assignments through MyOn, since it is such a great tool to have students use and practice their reading and writing skills.

*Please remember that Level 2s and Level 3s have assignments have assignments due no later than Monday evening.

Wednesday is our Valentine’s Party!

I have quite a few of you coming in and have also emailed me asking what they are doing.  Here is what I have gotten emailed to me and who is coming:

Helpers: Jamie, Alicia, Janai, Michelle, Enrique, Jaida (If I missed you, I apologize.  Just email me and remind me).

We will have:

– Valentine’s box decorating (thanks Elene!)

– Card making (decorating supplies from Michelle)

– I *heart* you this much paper craft (activity from Janai)

– Pin the lips game (activity from Alicia)

– Heart hop (activity from Alicia)

– Funny Valentine’s Game (activity from Alicia)

*I will have some little paper crafts to do as well

* If you are coming in to help out, we will begin our activities at 9:00am.  You are welcome to come in at 8:30am to help set up anything that is needed.  If you want to take your child with you after the Valentine’s Day activities (if you are there to help), please just let me know before you check them out.

* Clean up will begin at 11:15am (possibly sooner)

* Recess will be at 11:30am

* Lunch will be at 12:00pm

Thursday- Mr. Will, Anna’s grandpa, who comes in once a month, will be doing an art activity with the students on Thursday morning.

 

Field Trip to the Planetarium!

I have the permission slips ready to go!  The public transportation information is attached for you to rip off and keep.  The permission slips will be signed during PTC.  Since the Planetarium has strict field trip rules, they do not pay for parents, so if you are wanting to come with us, there will be a link posted soon, that will have you pay $6.00.  This fee is regarding the IMAX movie fee since they reserve the seating for our group.  They said they let 1 parent for the IMAX in free, so that will be reserved for our room mother’s family, should one of them go.

Here is who is going (if I missed you, please email me and remind me):

– Alicia

– Lori

– Kristie

– Linda

– Melissa
