We will have P.E. with Ms. Woods for specials next week. Make sure your student wears comfortable shoes!
Scholastic orders are due February 24. You can shop online here, just enter the class code Q2M6Q. If your student did not get a chance to shop at the book fair, many of the same books are available online!
February 14th: Valentine’s Day Party 9:15-10:15am, families are welcome to join the party!
Please send in decorated Valentine’s boxes by February 10th.
Your student may send in Valentine’s for their classmates. They can write their own name in the “from” section, but please leave the “to” section blank. We have 24 students in our class.
Read-A-Thon: January 30-February 13 Keep logging the minutes you are reading at home! You can still register your student so that they can earn reading minutes at school: https://www.read-a-thon.com/readers/r/lvofry/1
Our class earned the $100 book fair shopping spree! I picked out so many awesome books for our classroom. Thank you for your help!
We have one more week of our Read-a-Thon! If we continue to be the top class with student registrations, minutes read, and donations, we will win a pizza party next week. Let's keep those donations coming! I already asked my mom for a donation. I will call my grandma next!

Reading: We started Unit 6: Stories Have a Message. We read a book called “The Boy Who Fed His People”. We use the book to make connections to our own experiences and make connections to the world around us.
Writing: Students started a new personal narrative book. They picked an event to write about, shared with a friend, and began to sketch the beginning, middle, and end of their story.
Math: We reviewed addition and went to the book fair!
