Money and Telling Time

We have such an important Chapter coming up in Math this week.  We are learning how to count money.  It would help your child so much if you would get a bag full of various coins to work with at home.  We will be using fake money at school, but your child will benefit greatly from working with real coins at home.  Telling time will follow after Money so it would be great to start practicing this at home as well. 


Your child brought home the President Report Friday.  I sent it home a little early just to make sure you have plenty of time.  Please make sure your child follows the guidelines on the paper to receive the full amount of points.  The report is due February 21st.  Also, if I have any parents that would like to come in during the month of February to teach us about one of our Presidents we would love to hear from you.  Just send me a quick email and we will set up a time.


Science Voc. test is this Tuesday. 


Please refer to the right side of our page for important dates coming up.


I am going to send Scholastic Book orders home Monday.  I will place the order Friday.  You are welcome to order online or send the order in.
