Weekly News: January 14-18 Electives and Success Academy begin again this week.  Students have been doing such a wonderful job on writing last names! If your child is still struggling with this, please practice at home! You can make it a part of your writing homework. Our "wallets" have been a big hit in the classroom! Students are excited to "earn money" for making good use of classroom time and for good behavior and hard work throughout the day. On Fridays, they will have the opportunity to visit the classroom store. Students have the opportunity to trade out their money for larger coins (5 pennies for a nickel, etc) and choose to spend money on a prize or save it for a larger prize later. Please continue to count money received everyday and reinforce the responsibility of taking care of banks.   Also, if you are able, we'd love more prizes for our "class store"!!!  Thank you for your continued support! A LOOK AHEAD: Our next kindergarten

Happy New Year and welcome back to school! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and fun two weeks off with family and friends! This is a short week, but we will still have new sight words, letter teams, and Friday tests!  PLEASE MAKE SURE TO READ THE ENTIRE POST AS THERE IS A LOT OF NEW INFORMATION FOR THE NEW YEAR!! There is no school on Monday, January 21st due to Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Success Academy and electives will resume the week of January 14th.  Right before the holiday break, began practicing writing our first and last name! We will now have each student write his/her first and  LAST NAME  on ALL papers, homework, etc.  If your child does not know how to write his/her last name, please practice this at home. We will be practicing at school as well. Each student now has their last name written on  their name tags for support in the classroom.  *Also beginning after the holiday break each child will have a “wallet” that they will be taking home in their backpack.
