Thank you and Save the Date!
Dear Wonderful Parents,
Thank you for being part of your child's education. I enjoyed meeting with all of you and know that you appreciated seeing their daily work. This was the last parent teacher conference and I look forward to a healthy, productive rest of the school year.
You are invited to attend our Presidential Wax Museum @ 10:00 on Wednesday, February 18, in our classroom. Their presentation is due on Tuesday, February 17. There is no school on Monday, the 16, as we celebrate President's Day. When we return on Tuesday, they will be prepared to turn in their report and present to the class. Wednesday, after library, you will be joining us from 10-11 to listen to their speeches.
Hope you are enjoying your weekend.
Once again, thank you for all you do.
We look forward to seeing you,
Ms. Silver and Mrs. Gina

January News
Dear Parents,
I am sending this letter so that any questions you have may be addressed.
Happy New Year! With January comes new assessments, new spelling words, testing, and many new and exciting works. I did not assign homework the first week, but did send it home on Friday, Jan. 16. It is not due on Tuesday but the following Monday, Jan.26. Rather than give you a shortened time period to do it, I took MLK day into consideration and gave you an extra three days to complete it. Hope this helps to get the New Year off to a good start!
I spent the first few weeks re-assessing reading, spelling, math, and writing skills. Your children are, once again, working eagerly and try to meet their goals. They may have told you that we have elected class officers and are focusing on rights, responsibility, and independence. We had Galileo testing last week and next week we will begin Parent/Teacher Conferences.
Spelling lists went home on Friday (with their homework). Students may have moved ahead, stayed the same, or gone back a group. They are not aware as I am naming the groups by color. Your lists were not marked as everyone will start at the first level in their group. That way, they can learn more while feeling good about themselves.
If you haven't already done so, please sign up on line at volunteer spot for your conference. Thank you.
Our Presidential Wax Museum information packet went home with the children as well as electronically. Children are excited and enthusiastic. Their person was selected democratically by randomly reaching into a basket. I encourage you to assist them in this project as they need to read, write, memorize, and accessorize their costumes. It is due Feb. 17. Please make sure you have the information and do not wait until the day before to ask me for another copy.
Many thanks for blessing us with your wonderful children! If you have any questions please feel free to e mail me and I will get back to you the next day, at the latest.
I look forward to seeing you at conferences,
Ms. Silver

Presentations and Thanksgiving
Parents, your children presented their work yesterday (as
well as some on Monday and Tuesday).
They were so proud and learned a great deal from their work as well as
from each other. Thank you for your
active participation in their work, writing, and public speaking. I hope you enjoyed working with them and we
thank you for partnering in your children’s educational experience.
We give thanks for wonderful parents like you and wish
everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!
Gratefully,
Ms. Silver and Mrs. Gina

October/ November
Parents, you are amazing! Thank you so much for your
participation in International Children's Day! With all of you ( and
everyone participated and contributed) the day would not have been as memorable
for the children.
I feel blessed to have all of you in my life,
Ms. Silver :)
Please let me know if you plan to join us for the Thanksgiving
feast that is prepared by the cafeteria. I have table cloths but if
there's an approximate amount of people, I can have chairs and seating for all.
:)
Report cards will be sent home with your child on Friday. Kindly sign the envelope to show that you received it and return the envelope only on Wednesday (no school Monday or Tuesday). You may keep the report card.
Permission slips were sent home today for the Nutcracker and the Snow Queen. No money is necessary but both are walking trips and we must have permission slips for all field trips. Thank you!
