March 28 Update

There are just two quick announcements/updates for this week:

1. Thank you to so many of you who are sending in treats for our Perfect P Poetry Party on Thursday; it will be a really wonderful and fun way to celebrate the end of our unit, remember alliteration, and recite poetry. If your child will not be at school on Thursday, he or she needs to complete all assignments prior to leaving for break. Students will need to plan on reciting their poems first thing Wednesday morning. They also have a poem writing assignment that is due this week; students worked on it in class today. I think it will only be increasingly difficult to wrap things up after a week off of school. I also would prefer to not have to spend time tracking down assignments on Wednesday. It will be your child's responsibility to be prepared to recite his or her poem on Wednesday and to hand in the poem.


2. Report cards will be posted to Net Classroom on Thursday morning. Please take time to look at your child's report card with him or her. Teachers spend countless hours entering grades, making comments, and noting students' skills; help us multiply the effectiveness of that time by looking at and talking about your child's report card with him or her. Email me if you are unsure of your Net Classroom log-in information or if you need a paper copy sent home with your child.
