I hope everyone enjoyed the “cold days” that we had! Hopefully we don’t have anymore of these cold days!
This week was short but we still had lots to do! First we’ll have a couple of reminders:
1. Reading Homework: Thank you for reading each night with your child. Children become better readers by reading more and more with just the right type of book. Thank you for returning the calendars each Friday morning!
2. Communication: I love that we can all communicate by email or through the blog, before or after school. I am always here early for parents who have questions before school. It is more difficult to talk during the school day as it interrupts teaching and learning. If your child has an after school activity to go to please remind them that morning so they know ahead of time. I understand some parents work early and such but calling the classroom during school hours can interrupt our teaching and learning. Thank you for your understanding!
3. Book orders: February book orders are due this Monday, February 3rd.
4. Valentine’s Day:
We will pass out Valentine’s to our friends on Friday, February 14th and do a learning activity with candy hearts. You can get a head start on working with your child to decorate a cereal box or shoe box so that they can store their Valentine’s in the box. You can use construction paper, wrapping paper, etc.
5. Homework today: We don’t have a Home Link today but you can always visit the Everyday Math site to play games or abcya.com. Of course, it’s always a bonus to read on Sunday nights as well!
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Gina Parana
