Updates

New reading challenge sheets for February will be sent home on Friday. It will be pink. Please use this for the last week of the reading challenge, and turn it in on February 8. They will be sent back home again for the rest of the month to earn the Book-It certificate. You will also earn Book-It during the reading challenge. This week's prize is the Magic Waters free ticket. You will get the ticket in May in the report card. Magic Waters opens Memorial Day Weekend.
Thank you for sending the report card envelopes back! If you still have them, please return to school. We appreciate your prompt responses for conferences and Literacy Night. We are trying to accommodate parents with siblings in the school. We will hopefully send these notes home Friday or Monday. Thank you for your patience.
We had a blast at our "Respect" Dance Party on Monday. By showing respect for others, we filled our snow globe with snowflakes. We had so much fun that we hope to do this again! Way to go!
We are so excited to spend February 7 with you. Our Literacy Night is going to be a slam! We look forward to sharing poetry with our families and even creating some new ones with our guests. We will have 30 minutes in our classrooms that night. The bilingual storyteller will be from 6-7 and families are invited to come back to the classrooms from 7-7:30. Thank you so much for your RSVP to this event so we can plan for our guests. We look forward to seeing you on the 7th.
The Clydesdales will celebrate their reading challenge week one victory on Monday, Feb. 4 with an extra 30 minutes of recess with Ms. Perkins. Way to go! We are cheering on the Appaloosas to get picked this week.
With this wet and sloppy weather brings soggy socks and boots. Please keep a dry pair of socks in your backpack to be able to change into if your feet get wet. Please remember to air out/dry the snow gear when it comes home. Otherwise they are putting on wet clothes for recess and it makes for an even colder recess!
We will be having a Valentine's Day Party. We will get a list out to you soon, and a date too. Please help your child decorate a box for their Valentines. Please put your name BIG on the top with a slit the size of an envelope. Please bring them to school on Tuesday, February 12.
Have a great week!
Mrs. Montes
