Chapel Week

Lots of hard work this week as we prepared for chapel. We had a little more work this week because of the snow days last week. We are wrapping up some units in Math and Writing and are looking forward to continuing to move forward in our learning. The kids rocked chapel and I hope it was a blessing for you! Check out the pictures at the end of the blog!

Homework:

Monday a new reading slip, math homework page will come home and be due- February 10. The math page will be some double digit addition work.

*Psalm 121 will be sent home on Monday. Please practice this beautiful Psalm as a family!

*Keep working on the words of the week, we will be having a test coming up in the next couple of weeks.

Student Teacher:

The students met Hailey Soderman today. She is going to be a student teacher in our class starting the end of February. The kids had fun meeting her and asking her lots of questions! We are excited to help her get ready to be a teacher!

Jungle Explorer:

Gabe was our special Jungle Explorer of the Week! Thanks for sharing your poster and pictures with our class. We enjoyed getting to know you and learning that you like building Legos, sewing, and art. We love that you want to be a artist when you grow up! Your favorite place is Papa's House and your favorite food is pizza. You are so special to God and to us, Gabe, and we loved getting to know more about you this week!

 100TH DAY OF SCHOOL:

Friday, February 7 (if we have no snow days) will be our 100th day of school! But... I have a planned field trip to the Outdoor Discovery Center for that day and we will be gone all day. So we will dress up and have our fun 100's Day activities on Feb. 6.

I have lots of fun activities planned, and one of them is dressing like we are 100 years old! (No wheelchairs or walkers though, our classroom just isn't big enough!) Don't feel like you need to go buy things...just get creative with this! I wanted to give you a heads up so you can start raiding your Grandma's closets for some fun ideas!

CEREAL: 

Another thing we need you to have your child do is count out 100 pieces of their favorite cereal and bring it in a baggie with your child's name on it by Friday, January 31. I'll provide the bowls, milk and spoons and we'll be having a hundred's day breakfast together on our special day! Your child might need to eat a little at home too--100 pieces is not as much as you'd think! :) Please bring your cereal on Monday if you forgot today!

Field Trip:

Our class will be going to the Outdoor Discovery Center on Feb. 7 all day! Students will need a lunch and will need to dress for the weather! We are going to learn about some seasonal surprises and birds of prey.

Valentine's Day:

We will have a small party in our classroom on Feb. 13. If you are getting an early start on those valentines their is a class list coming home in your child's Friday folder. I have linked a sign up genius for a snack/drink for our party on the 13th if you would be willing to help out. Please checkout the link below. Thanks so much!!
