Weekly Update for 12/11/17

Grinchmas/Polar Express Day

On Friday, December 15 we will celebrate the upcoming winter holidays with the a theme of “Grinchmas.”  I have included in your child’s homework folder a permission slip that must be completed in order for your child to enjoy the fun snacks we have set up for our party on Friday afternoon.  The class is welcome to wear their pajamas to school on Friday.  We will be watching the “Polar Express” following resource class on Friday as well.  It will be a fun and exciting way to end school before the winter break.

Winter Break Reading Challenge

There will be more information coming home from Carrie Smith regarding the Winter Break Reading Challenge. Students are being challenged to read 20 steps over the winter break.  Those students that complete the challenge will receive a special surprise when they turn in their reading log in January.

Classroom Move

As of this weekend, we are scheduled to move back into Room 200 when students return to school on January 2.  This is dependent on the materials being used for the sprinkler system replacement begin installed and removed from our old room.  Mrs. Hinshaw and I have to come up during the winter break to organize our classrooms.  If any details change over the break, I will e-mail the class and post on the class blog.  Fingers crossed!

Donor’s Choose

I am so excited to announce that our project “Better With a Bookcase” was funded!  Thank you to the Canada family for making a donation to help with this.  Once we are moved back into our old classroom, we will have a new corner bookshelf as a “housewarming” present. 

What are we learning this week?  

We will be reviewing all SOL's covered so far this year in Reading and Math.
