Thank you to the lions today for a very informational and fun filled assembly!!  

Orders are due by February 4th!!

Send A Sip… …To Our Friends In Flint! The citizens of Flint face a very serious and long term water crisis. People all across the state and country are stepping up to help and now we can too! ALL THIS WEEK, ALL DEARBORN PUBLIC SCHOOLS WILL BE COLLECTING CASES OF WATER FOR FLINT. THIS IS A DISTRICT WIDE EFFORT BY ALL OF OUR SCHOOLS. On Friday, January 29 a semi-truck, donated by an Oakman parent, will be in the parking lot of Oakman Elementary School from 9:00 am – 11:30 am. The same truck will be in the parking lot of the Administration Building from Noon- 3:00 pm. Depending on the time or location that is more convenient, schools can bring their collected water to either one of the locations to be loaded on the truck. At 3:00 pm the truck will deliver the water to the Friends of Flint Water Drive being held from 10am – 7pm at the Redford Jaycee Hall. The District has committed our support to this event which is being supported by cities and schools in our area.

Please continue to study math facts at home with your child. We take a 50 question 4 minute test everyday. This is a large part of your child’s computation grade on the upcoming report card.
Students should be reading 15-20 minutes every night in order to improve their reading fluency and comprehension.

In writing we’ve started informational writing/ research paper about one of our presidents. Your child received their president on Friday, and also have checked out a book today on their president. If you’d like to do some research at home you’re more than welcome to. They may  bring in their findings to school so they have more information that will help them in their writing. We will also be looking online as well for more information. 

Our class has already completed our NWEA tests.I’ve send home an updated bar graph to compare with their scores from October.

Third time is a charm??? The Lions Organization is scheduled to come tomorrow (Tuesday) for their Anti-Bullying Assembly. Please encourage your child to wear their Lions gear of Snow School shirts on Tuesday.

Snow School’s Habit Hop is this Wednesday, January 27th. If your family did not return the yellow RSVP paper, you can still send in a note stating how many people in your family plan on attending.
Reminder that this Friday, January 29th is a half day.

Science test that we took this week coming home yesterday. Please go over the test with your child at home. Discuss any mistakes that your child made, and talk about how they can do better on the next test.

We have two LARGE tables in the lobby, filled with lost & found items. Drop by and check it out if your child is missing anything.
We will leave it out through next week before we will have to donate the items to charity.
To avoid lost items in the future, please make sure to label your child’s belongs so we can return them to you promptly!

Doors open at 6 p.m. and the movie starts at 6:30 p.m. There will be popcorn and baked goods to purchase. Parents must accompany children. No drop-offs. Bring a blanket or sleeping bag, hang out with your friends and watch a free movie!

Family Habit Hop

January 27, 2016

6:00 -7:30 p.m
When you arrive at Snow School please come to the table in the main lobby. Student Leaders will give you a color coded Passport and direct families into the Gym. In the gym the 7 Habits Song students have been learning in Music Class will be sung. Then Families will be called by Passport Color to exit to the first “Hop”. PLEASE follow the order on your Passport. Every 10 minutes Dr. Groover will ring a bell to signal a rotation to the next “Hop”. At the close of the evening Student Leaders will collect the Passports and give each family a 7 Habits Magnet as they leave.

Thanks,
