Ms. Doggett's Class Newsletter
February
The 3rd Quarter of the school year has begun and we are working hard! These past couple of weeks have been short, but that hasn't slowed 5th grade down! I hope everyone enjoyed the unexpected snow days and were able to spend some time outside.
February is a busy month, so please check out "Upcoming Dates" below to see what's coming up!
I will be sending home a class list for any students who want to bring valentines in for Valentine's Day. Students can bring in valentines on Friday, February 12th.
Have a wonderful week,
Ms. Doggett
Science
Students have continued to watch a daily weather forecast and track the weather using a weather chart. I encourage watching the weather with your child and asking them what they're observing in class.
We will start our next unit, Force and Motion, after we are finished with Matter.
Book Fair
We will be visiting the book fair, as a class, Thursday, from 1:40-2:25 pm. Students may also visit the book fair, if they have money, earlier in the week.
The book fair is also open to families before school from 7:30-7:55 am and after school from 2:25-3:00 pm.
If you are interested in volunteering at the book fair, please let me know!
Dancing Classrooms
We are lucky to have the opportunity to experience this program at Whitaker for the first time! A parent information letter was sent home two weeks ago in Tuesday Packets. Please contact me with any questions regarding the program.
