Conference week

I am looking forward to seeing you this week for conferences. Just a couple of reminders 1) The fundraiser for the playground is going on this week. You can put loose change in whatever teachers jar you would like. The teacher with the most money at the end of the week will get a pie in the face 2) The book fair will be going on at central this week during the conferences 3) we will dismiss at 2:30 on Tuesday and Thursday and we will not have school on Friday.

Buddy Ready for Valentines

We went over to Lark again today to read for our kindergarten buddies. Both of the grades really enjoy this. The kindergartners look up to our class and like having someone read to them. We made them little Valentine's and put suckers on them. Our class likes being able to teach them new words and listening to the kindergartners read their books to us.

Sumdog-Math practice

I will be sending home a note today about www.sumdog.com. It is a math website to help practice new facts and reinforce things that we have already learned. Each student will have their own user name and password that  was assigned to them. This will be attached to the note. I will be able to give them different things to work on through the website. It is not required, it is just extra practice. The more we use it the more points we can build up for our school. I can go in and check student progress and see which games they are playing. The log in will be in the upper right corner of the home screen. This is one more way to make learning fun!!
