Just a reminder:  Our field trip that was scheduled for this Friday, March 5th has been cancelled due to transportation issues.  The money has been refunded to your child and a huge Thank You to the parents who volunteered to chaperone.

If your daughter expressed an interest in Engineering for Girls at U of M-Dearborn on March 18th and you are interested in driving and/or chaperoning, please email me by the end of the week.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!

It has been a long week with this cold, cold weather!!  We will have our PBIS party on Monday, so if you would like to send in electronics for your child to play, make sure that your child’s name is on the game.

Our homework this weekend is Study Link 7.8.

If your daughter was one of the girls in my class to express an interest in Engineering for Girls at U of M-Dearborn on March 18th…we are in need of drivers and chaperones.  If you are interested, please email me.  We need private drivers for this activity.

Have a wonderful weekend and keep fingers crossed for warmer weather!

The Dearborn Symphony concert was great!  So was our own musician, Camden Akers!

Homework tonight:  Study spelling.  Also the Moon Project is due tomorrow.

Please remind your child to bring their recorders tomorrow since we have music.

Have a great night!

Just a reminder that we will be going to the Performing Arts Center today to listen to the Dearborn Symphony Orchestra.  I ask that all students dress nicely and bring gym clothes to change into later.  We will still be back in time for lunch and gym will be after lunch.

Our homework last night was Study Link 7.7 and practice spelling words and multiplication facts.  Make sure your child is still looking for the moon.  Our moon project is due tomorrow!

Have a great day!

Today’s homework is to study spelling and practice math facts.

Tomorrow we will have art.  If your child has not already turned in their field trip permission slip for the Performing Arts Center, please send it with your child tomorrow.

Have a great night!

Please make sure that your child gives you the field trip money that I returned to them today!

Today’s homework:  SL 7.6 and permission slip for the Performing Arts Center.

Pennies for Pasta:  Our last day to collect will be this Friday, Feb. 27th.  We have been very supportive of the Leukemia Foundation and look forward to closing out this week with a record collection.  Our total right now is $852.95!!  Tons of thanks for your support!

PBIS Reward Party:  Monday, March 2 2:45-3:15.  Students may bring electronics from home for this reward day!  We usually don’t allow tablets, ipads, ipods, Leapster, DS and other electronics at school, but this one half hour is different!  Please enjoy, respect and be responsible with your electronics!

Have a great evening!

I hope everyone enjoyed their week off!  We are looking forward to warmer weather soon, right?

Field Trip Update:  Unfortunately, due to transportation problems, we will not be able to take our field trip to the Imagination Station on March 5th.  I will be returning everyone’s permission slip and money on Monday.  I really appreciate all of the parents who volunteered to accompany us on the trip.  Hopefully, we can set up a new destination and field trip soon!  I know the students were really looking forward to our hands on science experience…

Our spelling words this week focus on words ending in /ile/ or /il/:

docile, profile, fragile, gerbil, council.

Our content words are:

solid, liquid, gas, matter, heating, cooling.

Please make sure your child is reviewing their multiplication facts.  We have added the 11’s and 12’s to our test, so make sure they are reviewing these as well!

Have a great rest of your day and see you tomorrow!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine’s Day and a wonderful week off!

Please make sure your child is checking for the moon daily!

I hope all the children are planning on reading daily and reviewing their multiplication facts.  Even if you are going out of town, don’t let the children break their habit of math and reading.  We want to be ready for the rigorous end of the year academics.

Have a great evening and stay warm!!
