We will be using empty cereal boxes to decorate and store our Valentines in the near future. Please send in any empty ones you may have. Also, I am looking for a volunteer that would be willing to come in the week of February 5-9 to cover the cereal boxes with white paper for us to be able to decorate them. Let me know if you are interested in this! Thanks.
Spellling and Math Focus
There will be NO new spelling words or math fact fluency focus this week. Your child is encouraged to practice any words/facts that are still tricky for him or her. I recently sent home the most recent word work check so that will be helpful to know which words your child still needs to practice. Thanks for your support at home!
Reading Bags/DRA
You may have noticed that your student's reading bag of books has not changed much since we have come back from break :/ . This has been due to DRAs (Developmental Reading Assessment) I have been doing individually with students. I will be finishing up this week in order to give you this information on report cards, so NEXT week we should be back to normal :) . Continue having your child read Good Fit books to you. Raz-Kids(let me know if you need a login reminder) and Epic(signup note was sent home last week if interested) are great options also!
Caring Coyote Lanyards
I talked to students last week about bringing in their Caring Coyote lanyards and spirit sticks. We will now be keeping them at school to help with the frequent forgetting. If you could help your child find his/hers and send it in, that would be very helpful! I will also be tracking who has lost theirs so that we can look into getting them new ones :) . Thanks for your help with this!
