Week 23: JANUARY 24, 2011

Please note that the challenge words for this week have changed from last week's printout.

We have been busy using our sharpened pencils. If you would like to donate your time, and have a means to sharpen pencils, please let me know. I have many unsharpened pencils that require sharpening. Thank you.

The Parent/Teacher conference note and schedule came home in your child's Friday folder last week. Please take the time to fill out and return it back to school as soon as you can in order to recieve your requested time. Again, if you feel a need to have a longer conference time than 20 minutes, please let me know and we can set up a different day and time.

A permission sheet came home last Friday also for our students to have an inhouse speaker on Native Americans. The cost is $2.00. Please fill this purple permission sheet and return as soon as possible. Thank you for your attention in a timely manner.

Again, I would like to repeat last week's announcement about second half of the years expectations...
Here we go; the second half of the year is upon us. Our children are closer to becoming 3rd graders! Over the next few months, we will be raising the bar and expectations on the overall performance of each individual student in regards to their homework, classwork, and classroom behavior.
