March is Reading Month Fun!

Happy Reading Month!

A calendar was sent home a couple weeks ago in regards to the fun activities you can do each day in honor of Reading Month with your child.  One thing that our class welcomes and encourages are visiting Readers!!!  The kids love it when someone, other than their teacher, reads to them.

We were lucky enough last week to have the privilege of Mr. Sion’s company (Rami’s grandpa, a retired Dearborn teacher).   He entertained us with the 2 stories he read and the song he SANG to us!!  The love of Reading he showed to our class was evident and admirable.  Enjoy a few pictures from last week and his visit 🙂

If there is any parent, grandparent, or visitor that wants to visit our class during the month of March to read to us, please contact me so we can set up a day and time.

Castle Cup Challenge-PBIS

Dear Families,

 

Our February PBIS celebration is almost here and the kids are so excited to make a competition out of this month’s activity with a CASTLE CUP CHALLENGE! Each grade level will be divided up into small groups and will have the opportunity to work with their classmates to design and create the best structure they can imagine.

 

In order to make this celebration possible, we are asking for donations of        16 ounce plastic cups (typical red Solo cups). The more cups we have, the more the kids will get to use in their creation.

 

If you are able to donate, please send the cups in with your student no later than Monday, February 26th.

 

Thank you so much for your continued support – it truly is appreciated!
