It's been nice getting back into our regular routines! I have enjoyed hearing about your Christmas traditions and the students have certainly had a lot to write about in Writer's Workshop! Their behaviour has been spectactular and I'm really proud of the work they've done so far in 2012. Today we wrote New Year's Resolutions. Ask your child what their goals are for this new year!
The students have decided that the next reward they would like to work towards is a "no homework week". I was a little skeptical at first, but have decided that they deserve the chance to earn a week off! Rewards generally take several weeks to earn, but they will be trying every day to earn letters to spell out that phrase!
Just a reminder that the weather is getting colder and children should be dressed appropriately. Many students are still coming to school without hats, mitts and snowpants. Crazy carpets are available during recess, but only students that have snowpants are able to use them.
Thank you for your cooperation in making sure that your child's indoor shoes are non-marking soles. Our gym floors have been re-finished and we are doing our best to ensure that they are kept in excellent condition.
It's been a great week so far! Don't forget that this Friday is hot dog day and homework sentences are due on Friday as well.
Mrs. Roberts :)
