Happy Valentines,
· Thank you:
Parents for helping our day get started smoothly and quietly each morning. By
this time of the school year, your child should be able to separate at the door,
come in get slippers on and come to circle with little assistance. This is going
very well!!
Thanks for sending in soup kitchen ingredients this month! Also a big thanks to
Teresa Silverthorn for volunteering to help prepare and deliver the “Cabbage
Pot” lunch to Zion Shelter and Soup Kitchen today.
· Reminders:
If your child is doing sight word activities, keep in mind that this assignment is
good preparation for 1st grade. Parents, it is a great time to observe in the 6-9
classroom. You just need to sign in at office. You do not need an appointment.
· Kidsfest Project assignment:
Your child will be studying the world and the seven continents as part of the 3-6
classroom curriculum. Your child will have an individual Kidsfest assignment.
We will be sending home a February/March calendar with your child’s name
plugged in on a Monday, Wednesday or a Friday of an assigned week. Your
child’s calendar will have an assignment written on it. This is your child’s first
research project. We are hoping that this assignment will allow you and your
child to spend some quality time trying to learn something about one of the
continents of the world.
· 3-6 Kidsfest group performance:
The performances will take place on the evening of Kidsfest, Friday April 20, 2012. The 3-6 students will be practicing international songs with Mrs, Rhem in preparation for Kidsfest from now until Kidsfest.
· Valentines:
Please use the roster to address all valentines. We would like to give students time to work on these with Parents, but send them in as soon as you finish. Your child will get to deliver their valentines the same day they bring them in. If need a copy of the roster, contact bianca.shoneman@gmail.com
· February fieldtrip:
Our class participates in the soup kitchen community service each month, so Hardee/Hill class will not be going to the assisted living centers as Gaddy and Moore
Our next fieldtrip will be on Friday, February 24. We will be leaving our classroom at 9:00 am. and returning around 12:30 pm. We will be traveling to the Tarheel Variety Theatre for the production of “Alice In Wonderland”. Thank you drivers.
· Auction:
Please plan on coming to our biggest school fundraiser for the year. Our annual auction “Luau” is planned for Saturday, February 18, 2012, beginning at 5:00 for those who want to preview all the items up for auction. We have recently shown our 3-6 students what their $3.00 donations went toward. With your donations we were happy to create a “discovery basket”,any 3-6 or 6-9 student would love to have. The 3-6 teachers would like to encourage all of our 3-6 parents to come out for a night of fun! Thank you parents for sending donated items in as well.
Thanks for your continued support,
Mrs. Hardee and Mrs. Hill
