Weekly Update for 02/03/20

To Infinity & Beyond
Please mark Wednesday, March 11th (6:00PM - 6:30PM) down on your calendar as Mrs. Booth and our class’ “To Infinity & Beyond” Expo.  This will be the night that our two classes share all that we have learned about Space in conjunction with Mrs. Vukmanic’s SOAR class.  It is my hope to have all students attend this special event. More information will be coming home soon.
Black History Month
We will be learning about the lives of several important African Americans this week.  Each student has picked a person he/she is interested in learning more about.  We will research their lives and why he/she is important to our American history.  Look for our projects in the hallway beginning February 3rd.

Valentine’s Day
We will be celebrating Valentine’s Day on Friday, February 14.  If your child would like to share valentine cards with the class, please make sure to include one for each child in our class.  A list of students’ names is on your child’s behavior check-in located in his/her reading folder. 

Crayons, Pencils, and Scissors

As we end the first semester of the school year, now is a good time to send in new crayons, pencils, and replacement scissors.  I have given out all of the boxes of crayons that were sent in at the beginning of the school year.  If you can send in extra supplies, our class would appreciate it.
