• The Science review came home today.  The quiz will be on Thursday.
• Spring Picture day is also this Thursday.
• Yay Us!!!  Today we earned our 50th compliment point and will be brainstorming ideas for a way to treat ourselves.
• We extended our recognition of the 100th day of school yesterday when our Kindergarten buddies visited today.   Tapping these balloons back and forth 100 times is not as easy as it sounds – but it sure was fun 🙂

•  If you are looking for the Science review, it DID NOT come home today.  We got so into our 100’s day and Reading Month activities that we just did not have time to complete it together.
• THANK YOU for sending in snacks to make gorp and for supporting your child with their poster!!!!  We were a big success today 🙂
• Spelling words will be posted to the spelling page.  I can only post the 5 district words that every student has.  The other 5 words your child has are unique to them.
• I had a question this morning about the Reading Month calendar.  It looks like on every Tuesday there is an activity to complete.  These are only suggestions – none of the Tuesday activities on the calendar need to be turned in to school.
• We kicked off March is Reading Month today with the song “Gotta Keep Reading”.  We will keep practicing and put motions to the song also, I hope.

Just a few pictures:

• posters and snacks tomorrow
• February reading minutes can be turned in at any point this week for the pizza certificate
• March is Reading Month goal is 120 minutes per week for each student.  The big difference this month is that students have to turn their minutes in EVERY FRIDAY for the week, instead of just at the end of the month.  The tickets to turn in every week were part of the packet sent home on Friday.
• A few activities may be added during the month just to give it some ‘zing’ 🙂  These may be things like crazy sock day, a read in day where kids can bring a blanket or stuffed animal, learning a pretty cool song to perform for you, and/or, hopefully, our Guest Readers!!!
• Tomorrow we will do a review in Science.  I expect our test to be either Wednesday or Thursday.  The review will come home so you can go over it with your child.
