Please remember that homework calendars are now part of this teacher 
website.  The link is listed at the bottom.  

Please also take time to help and/or look over your child's homework.  I have 
gotten MANY assignments back full of mistakes that could have been easily 
corrected with the help of a parent.  This help time also allows you to see 
what skills your child is having trouble with.  Homework assignments should 
also NOT be done with or by an older sibling.  This isn't always the best 
match. Try and have only a parent or guardian assist in written homework 
assignments.  Remember to also have your child write their name on their 
assignments and work in pencil ONLY! 

Our 2nd writer's celebration will take place on Thursday, January 26 and 
Friday, January 27th.  I will be sending home a copy of your child's "How to" 
book so they may practice as home.  Some students may also need to collect 
the props needed to present their "How to" story to the class.  I have access 
to a microwave if needed, but not much else.  So, start thinking ahead.  Your 
child's assigned date will come home tomorrow, January 17th.  Each child will 
present in front of the classroom. 

Please contact me if you have any questions.  Thank you!

Mrs. Siefkes
