Newsletter Addition "A Thank You"

Hi All,

I am so sorry, but I forgot to add a thank you note in the newsletter.

I just wanted to say thank you for all the Valentine's Day goodies and cards. Some of them had names from who they were from and many did not. They were/are yummy treats and I am still enjoying them! :)

Happy Almost Friday. Remember tomorrow is half day and free dress!

Blessings,

Christina

Newsletter and New Homework Policy

 Hi All,

Attached is the newsletter for next week.

At the start of the 2nd quarter, I made a new incentive for the class to get their homework in on time. Most of you may know what it is. Each day they all turn in their homework in the morning and if all of them have their work turned in, in the trays they will get a letter in the word "homework" and once they spell out the word homework they will get a movie and popcorn on a Friday. Since this has happened the class has only spelt out the word once and since back to school in January they have only be able to get 2 letters.

I am sorry, but this is unacceptable. Homework needs to be done each night and turned in the next morning first thing. Not after I have collected it and graded it. I am getting tired of asking them for their homework and hearing them say it is in their desk. They have plenty of time in class to work. I want to see them care about their work again. Therefore, until further notice (unless their is an emergency at your house one night and please know you can contact me) if homework is not turned in the next day they will lose points and be finishing it at recess. If the homework is left at home (and is finished) they will be walking the line at recess.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Blessings,

Christina

January Reading Logs

Hi All,

I did not receive many reading logs back for January. Please make sure those come back to school. Your child will have a 0 in the grade book if they did not turn it in. Remember, they get a point for each day read; so some points are better than none.

Blessings,

Christina

Student Headphones and a PPP Hour Opportunity

Hi All,

As your child may have shared with you, we have started to incorporate the use of Kindles into our classroom learning. Right now, the apps are just math, but I am going to look to incorporate them into other subjects. I would like to ask each of you to please send in a pair of headphones (labeled) for your child that we can keep in the classroom. This will help reduce the sound from them. Please send these in with your child as soon as possible. :)

I could also use some help with our class reading stuffed animals. I try to wash them twice a year.  If someone is willing to take them to the laundromat and wash them and bring them back, I would greatly appreciate it.

Blessings,

Christina
