Wow!  What an action-packed day!!  Here is a peek into some of our fun…but first, congratulations to our students of the month – Ali and Maryam   Tomorrow we will continue to present our 100th day projects and I will post some pics of those when we are done.  Many, many thanks for the help with our party, the snack donations, and my cards/gifts – it truly takes a village and I appreciate you!!!

Hi   I’m looking at the temps for tomorrow and they look like they will be pretty good for an outdoor recess…FINALLY!!  With that in mind, please make sure your child has what they need to be ready to be outside…boots, snowpants, hat, gloves, etc…

Thanks!

I posted a quick, fun writing assignment in google classroom.  Students can complete this if they are interested and then “turn in” to me for a prize from the prize box.

The trickiest part will be logging in to google classroom.  They can get to google classroom by going to the Dearborn schools page, and then clicking on student resources or by clicking here.  You can also try just having them log in to google like you or I would with their email address and password.

Their email address is their student number@dearbornschools.org  They all have it memorized!

(example:  20018432@dearbornschools.org)

Their password is their birthday. (example:  08112008)

The classroom code is ncspxg  (just in case you need it!)

If you cannot get in to google classroom OR if you would rather have them do it on paper, here is a copy of what it looks like (snow day challenge).  You can either print it off or they can just write on lined paper.

The directions were:

Finish the story starter by filling in the first sentence and then adding at least 3 details!

Make sure you:

• Use complete sentences
• Start sentences with a capital letter
• End every sentence with punctuation

• Friday, February 9th is a SNOW DAY!!  Please stay tuned for a “Snow Day Challenge” post tomorrow

• Just a reminder that the 100th day is next week (we’re moving it to Wednesday due to the snow day).  We will present our posters – check out the sneak peek below- and have a 100 piece snack.  Just in case, here is the note that was sent home with all the details. 100th day 2018

• Valentine’s Day is Wednesday, also   Students are welcome to wear their pajamas to go along with our pancake party theme!!  If your student is bringing valentines or treat bags to pass out, please make sure they have one for each student. valentines-2018

• Permission slips came home today for our STEM field trip on Friday, March 2nd.  Please send these back by Friday. Field Trip
