100th Day of School

The 100th day of school is quickly approaching!! If we do not have anymore snow days, the 100th day of school will be Thursday, February 3rd. We will be doing several activities throughout the day to celebrate the 100th day. We will write numbers to 100, write 100 words, count to 100, and will wear 100 day crowns. Also, we would like for your child to bring in 100 small objects. Some examples are: 100 pennies, 100 pieces of cereal, 100 pieces of candy, 100 buttons, etc. Please send the objects in a plastic bag or container with your child's name on it. You can begin sending these objects in by Tuesday, February 1st. Your child will get to present the objects to the class and we will count the objects as a group. The 100 objects will be returned to you. Thanks and we look forward to this fun day with the students!

Welcome Back!!

Welcome back to school!! I hope everyone had a wonderful break.

We have had a great first couple of weeks back. All of the students needed reminders about the expectations and rules, but we are finally starting to get back into the swing of things. It's kind of hard with all of these snow days that we've been having!! :)

We will be doing the MAP and DIBELS tests starting next week. We are so excited for these tests to show all of the great progress that your child is making. They will be tested in Reading and Math. Please make sure that your child is getting plenty of sleep at night and a good breakfast next week. Thanks for all you do at home.
