We Do... YES have school on Monday. We look forward to seeing everyone in class.
Please remember to ask your child about the special math games Mrs. Pam taught us. Also ask about the special parents who were able to attend our class Friday to talk about their jobs.
Special thanks to Kade's Mom and Mya's Mom for being special guests in our class to talk about their jobs.
We really learned a lot.
Also thanks to all the kids who dressed up for career day. We all had DIFFERENT jobs to discuss. It was an Exciting day.
Last Thanks to everyone who volunteered to attend the Valentines Day Party and those who sent in items for us. We had a great time and the kids really enjoyed exchanging valentines.
Have a great Week.

This week is full of activity.
We have Music on Tuesday along with celebrating President Lincoln's Birthday.
We have a special math lesson on Wednesday. We have Counseling on Thursday and our Valentine's Day Party that day too.
And last on Friday we have Career Day.
We will be making bags in class to hold our valentines.
Please have your child dress up on Friday to reflect the career they want to have when they grow up.
Hopefully some of you will be able to come in and present about your personal job that day too. Just fill out the form we sent home last week and return it as soon as possible so Mrs. Bush will know to schedule you for classes. Be prepared to present about your job at least 3 times that morning. Thanks ahead of time.

I hope everyone has a restful weekend. For those of you who are football fans... This Sunday is it!!!!! The big showdown in the Super Bowl. Go 49ers. :)
In math we have just recently talked about geometric shapes and then fractions. Please continue to ask your child about these topics while you are out and about. Geometric shapes are Everywhere. You use fractions everyday in the kitchen, or measuring out medicine, or when you share something with your child. Talk about it. The more they see it around them, the more they see these topics are real and important.
Our next topic is Money. Students will now get "paid" for their grades.
They will get paid a quarter for every 100% they make.
They will get paid a dime for every A (90 - 99%).
They will get paid a nickel for every B (80 - 89).
They will get paid a penny for every C (70 - 79).
Sorry, No money will be awarded to D's and F's.
I will pay them for all their January grades this coming week. After that every Friday will be PayDay.
Students must earn $1.00 to shop at the class store. They will be able to buy one item if they can count out their dollar. Once everyone has shopped I will allow anyone with a second dollar to shop again.
The store will happen on the last Friday of each month.
I will also have a few $5.00 items at the store. Those students who want to save up and shop for those may do it.
Our special class this week is Library on Wed.
Those students who attend the PTA meeting on Tuesday will be given a gotcha.
We still have a wish list item. We are in need of a pencil sharpener. If anyone has the ability to send one in and would like to donate we could certainly use it. Thanks. (I'm still saving up to buy the expensive, heavy duty one)
Have a Great Weekend and First week of February.
Remember to tell someone you Love them!
