Welcome to our FIRST 5-day week of 2011.
We are starting U.4 W.2 this week and we are back on a Day #1/Monday and Day#5/Friday schedule.
A couple of special dates to remember this week are:
Wednesday= January 26th is the 100th day of school.
*IF your child wants to bring in a Collection of 100 items Wed. they may.
NO POSTERS PLEASE. Bringing a collection is OPTIONAL.
Ex: Candy, small food items, buttons, small toys, coins, sticker collection.
Your child will show and tell about their collection of 100 items.
On Wed. we will do 100th day activities ALL day Long in every subject area.

Thursday= January 27th Mrs. Pam will be coming in again to do a fun/fancy math lesson
with us. She has visited us on several occasions and has shown us very fun
and creative ways to learn math concepts.
On Thurs. we will also have our weekly reading test.

Friday = January 28th The Gifted Teacher will be coming in to do a lesson with our class.

On Friday we will also have our weekly spelling and language tests.

SPECIAL THANKS to all the students who were able to come and perform at the PTA program last Tuesday night. And special thanks to: Adrianna Patterson, Alexus Robbins, and T.J. Brown for being brave and doing their individual speaking parts. Everyone did an Excellent job. Thank you parents for bringing them to the meeting.

Please ask your child about our MUSIC MAN Gotcha party we had last Friday. He played instruments from around the world for us and then had the whole school "just a dancin'". The kids had a great time.
Our next gotcha party will be in three weeks and it is entirely a dance party. Students need 5 gotchas to attend. (remember all smiley faces in a week earns a gotcha each Friday) (signing graded papers also gets your child a gotcha) And then of course they can get them from anywhere in the school for just being good.

Have a GREAT Week.
-Mrs. Mainor
