HOMEWORK
This week I am sending home paper copies of little readers about Penguins. Please read and return these on Wednesday.
Study spelling words nightly.
Practice your math facts of SUBTRACTION with a deck of cards or with UNO cards. We play like slap jack but instead the person who subtracts correctly gets the cards. The winner of the game is when the person has all the cards. We don't play with aces, kings, queens, jacks, or jokers.
Read every night for 10 minutes
BOOK-IT - Don't forget to write down the 6 books or 6 chapters you read of a book with the author. I do need a parent signature also.
-Thank you for making Catholic Schools Week so meaningful for all of us last week. It’s wonderful to celebrate our Catholic faith!
-We will exchange Valentines Friday.Each child will make a bag here at school to keep all of their valentines in. Please see the note below.
Exchanging Valentine's cards is a favorite activity for elementary students. All students may bring in valentines to exchange on Friday, February 12. Due to our policy on snacking and food allergies, children are NOT allowed to bring in valentines with ANY type of candy attached to them or valentines that are packages of candy. There is no way to monitor and ensure that all candy brought in is on the safe snack list. IF your child brings cards with candy, we will have to send them back home. Thank you for helping us keep all of our children safe.
WE WILL PLAY OUTSIDE as long as the temperature is at or above 40 degrees.
