Veteran’s Day

Hello!

Our class is working on an assignment for Veteran’s Day.  I have asked each student to do a report on a Veteran.  If possible, I would like them to interview an actual Veteran and write a report based on what they were able to find out.  If you do not personally know any Veterans, you can make a visit to the Veteran’s Home, or research a person online.  The report should be at least one page long (typed).  In addition to the report, I would like them to come up with a presentation to show the class.  This can be a poster, power point, video, memorabilia to display, etc.   The written report is due on November 8th.  The presentation will be due on November 11th, which is Veteran’s Day.  I am hoping to put together a program for that day and invite the parents and some of the Veterans to come for the presentations.  More on that to come…

 

Also, don’t forget about our talent show this Friday at 9:30 AM!  We are still planning to do it outside on the stage, so dress warmly!

 

Talent Show!

Hello!

As most of you know, our class is having a talent show!  A couple of boys from our class asked for permission to plan one and have been working really hard to get it organized.  The plan is to have it this Friday, October 25th at 9:30 AM.  You are all invited to come!  We are hoping to use the stage outside for the show.  So far, it looks like the weather will cooperate.  We’ll let you know for sure about the location as it gets closer.  We hope to see you there!

I Loved Parent Teacher Conferences!

Hello!

Thank you all for coming to Parent Teacher Conferences!  I can honestly say that I enjoyed meeting with each one of you.  I love your children and I loved being able to talk with you about how they are doing.  I truly feel that it is a gift to share your children with you.   I hope you were able to feel that.  If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t ever hesitate to e-mail me.
