Dear Parents:
Math: We will be starting timed tests in math starting this Friday, January 6. Every week we will be taking timed tests on Tuesday and Friday mornings. Please help your child memorize the multiplication tables as we go all the way to 12 times and then start on division.
Field Trip to the Planetarium: We are starting our big science unit on the Solar System. We will be visiting the Planetarium at Valley College next Tuesday, January 10, in the morning.
Science Project for the Solar System: Each child will be assigned a planet to do research on and also a written paper. A story board will also be required for an oral presentation. Folders with all the specific information will be coming home in their home work folders the first week of January. Be sure to check for all this information.
A Big Thank You: Our Christmas project went amazingly well. Thanks to the parents who helped prepare the fleece blankets and coming in to help with the tying. Because of your generosity we were able to pack up about 8 boxes of food, make 14 blankets, 24 scarves, and send grocery certificates to Food For Less for $235.00. I know the food and blankets will go a long way in helping families who are in need at this time.
Homework: Homework is due every Friday morning.
Spelling Test: We have a spelling test every Friday morning.
Pizza: Pizza is sold every Friday. $1.00 per slice.
