Dear Snow Parents,

Snow Elementary is committed to fostering an inclusive environment for our students with and without disabilities. As part of our efforts to support students with disabilities we have developed a program to promote awareness.

Peer Pals is dedicated to building relationships between general education students and students with special needs.  This program allows general education students to develop empathy and understanding of differing abilities. It allows for students with special needs to build friendships with same age typically developing peers. Some students will be paired in social/academic activities with a peer pal.  Student participation is voluntary.

***Family Science Night***

Dear Snow Families,

We are very excited to bring to Snow Elementary School our 4th Annual Family Science Night!  It will take place on Thursday, January 26th 6:00-7:30 p.m.  The evening will begin in the gym with a “Wacky Science” presentation by Scheer Magic Productions.  This will begin at 6:00 p.m. sharp, so please plan accordingly.  After the assembly, you and your family will have time to walk around the school to see the wonderful science projects that the students have accomplished.   You may also visit with the STEM Middle School Robotics Team.  We invite you to celebrate our success and support your student’s science skill development.

** ALL SNOW STUDENTS:  Please wear your “Snow Leaders Shirts.”  If you do not have one, please wear any Snow t-shirt or the color blue. **

Sincerely,

The Science Committee & Snow PTA

Hi to all!!

We had a great two days of practice in Chess Club.  The members still need to work on strategies.  We do have a new member which I would like to welcome to our Club. She is a 5th grader from Mr. D’s class.

Next week, I will be sending home field trip permission slips for our first tournament which will be coming up February 7th.  I need all parents to drive if we can not transport our players then we would have to forfeit our match which means a loss for us.  Please make sure you have given to Michelle our School Secretary a copy of your Registration of your car, a copy of your drivers license and proof of insurance.  I truly appreciate all the trouble you are going through to help me.  Thanks and have a great weekend.

Dear Parents,

Below is about our Science Fair.  Our class is not doing individual Projects but a group Project.  I just wanted to pass on to all of you this information in case any of you will be interested in attending.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to our Winter Break Party.  We had a lot of fun making pancakes.  I hope everyone has a safe and restful Winter Break.  I am looking forward to a wonderful 2017 with your child.  Please read the information below written by Mrs. Zechar our Art Teacher.  Again thank you for allowing us to work with a great group of students.

Hello, Snow School Community!!!   Our Lobby will soon become a “Wolf Den”.  Students will be making trees, rocks, etc., to enhance our space. We are looking for any artificial trees that might get thrown out after the holidays. Any tree- big, small, tiny, medium, fat, skinny, etc., is eligible. Please let us know if you have one or if someone you know does. Ms. Zechar can pick them up or you can drop them off at school. Questions? Please email Ms. Zechar at zecharj@dearbornschools.org or call school, 313-827-6250, and she will get back to you.   Spread the word.   Tons of thanks!!

Calling all shovelers!

Let it snow!!!

As part of Snow Elementary Leader In Me Program, we are asking you, our fabulous students, to reach out in our community to help others.  If you’d like to be a part of the Snow Shoveling Club, simply volunteer to shovel a neighbor’s, relatives or your very own driveway and sidewalk.  Please be sure to have a parent with you and get permission of the community member before shoveling.  You are giving back to the community, so please offer to do this free of cost.

Each time you shovel someone’s snow, color a square on the chart sent home.  Once you have helped 5 members in the community, please return the chart to Mrs. Grizzell for acknowledgement of your leadership and kindness.

Thank you!

I hope everyone enjoyed their snow day on monday.  We have been talking about how the African Americans celebrate their holiday Kwanzaa.  We also went to Life Town for the first time this school year.  It was fun for all and we loved eating pizza.  Thank you to all for allowing this wonderful experience occur.  Thank you for all who attended our field trip to life town.  We have a great time and everyone acted like ladies and gentlemen.  I was so proud of everyone.

Please read the following:

The students returned after Thanksgiving Break rested and ready to work.  We have introduced a new Unit.  We are talking about how different cultures celebrate the Holiday Season.  Thank you for allowing us to work with a great group of students.
