Parents,
We really rely on donations in order to do these class parties to purchase sweets and supplies for activities. Currently we do not have more than half of the classes donations. Please donate $1-2 in the office by tomorrow after school.
Please fill out and sign this permission slip for your child to participate in our Valentines party. If they do not have permission they will not be allowed to participate and will be doing other work.
Thank you!!
Mrs. Bischoff
The National Junior Honor Society is having a “SOUPER” bowl canned food drive from February 1st-February 8th. The collection bins are located just outside of the Q1 and Q2 libraries. Their goal to collect at least 250 canned food items before Monday, February 8th, will result in the administration doing something WACKY. The NJHS will be donating all of the food collected to the Ogden-Weber Community Action Partnership Food Pantry. Food must be non-perishable bagged, boxed, or canned.
They are always running low on the below items if you would like to donate:
*Macaroni
*Macaroni & Cheese
*Spaghetti Sauce
*Tuna
*Chili beans
*Rice
*Juice
*Soups
*Canned Fruits
3. MANY donations are still needed to fill our 1st Grade STEM Gala basket. The Theme is Family Fun Night. (see previous post for details)
Parents,
Some of you have been interested in, or we have been for a while, tracking their child’s behavior in a variety of ways. Thumbs up thumbs down at the end of the day, colored cards, etc. This is becoming overwhelming to keep track of and some would like to start doing it. In order to keep me sane I’d like to change the way to track each child’s behavior in a more uniformed way.
I am making it an option for those of you who would like me to help communicate with you how your child is doing each day. Here is a behavior tracker that I have created. If you would like me to track your child’s behavior please print it out and put it in a sheet protector for their blue folders. I will at the last few minutes of each day have those students who have it get it out and color in what they get for that day. Sheet protectors will keep you from having to print one off each week unless you would rather do that. Students can color in with expos each day and wipe it off at the end of each week and start again.
This will be based off of our behavior chart at school and depending on where their clothespin is at the end of the day depends on what they will receive. I will teach them this tomorrow and go over it with them so they understand.
Here is the
Behavior Tracker. Let me know if you have feedback, questions or concerns. I am just going to try this out to see if that helps me stay more on top of it and allow more parents the option of getting feedback each day on behavior.
Thank you,
Mrs. Bischoff
TONIGHT’S MATH HOMEWORK
For tonight’s homework there was two math pages to do odd problems with please do not have them do the last math page. My hopes of getting through each lesson did not work out and they will not know how to do it. It is lesson 5. You can have them simply turn it back in without doing the last page. I apologize I should have not included it.
TOMORROW: EARLY OUT 1pm
*$1.00 dress down or wear uniform
* Homework due
We have had some awesome parents donate two very large baskets for us for our STEM Gala Auction Basket. BUT—we still need many donations to continue to fill it.
It’s competition time! The 1st grade team will be making a Family Fun Activity Basket. To make this happen, we need some donations from family/friends. Feel free to ask companies for donations, purchase items, or re-gift items. Nothing is too small or too great. The baskets will be auctioned off via a Silent Auction in conjunction with our Gala! Baskets will be on display prior to the event in the lobby area of Q1. The basket donations are due no later than Friday, February 19th. The STEM Gala is March 21st.
Thank you so much for all of your support! With a little help we can put together the best basket and win! The ideas are endless and there is no idea that we can think of you could donate that wouldn’t fit into our basket theme. If you know any businesses that you can ask for donations that would be great as well! The Rush Funplex has already donated 5 VIP All Day Passes for our basket! All it takes is a phone call.
Below is a list of suggested items to donate:
Games: board games, card games, electronic hand held games, wordsearch books, coloring books, etc.
Baking items: Cookie mixes, cake mixes, cookie decorating tools, aprons, kids cookbook
Movies/DVD’s: Kid friendly dvd’s or gift cards to Movie theaters or Netflix, Redbox Codes, movie theater mugs
Gift cards: Ice cream shops, sporting events, Fat Cats Card, Sparetime or Fun Plex Gift Cards, Boondocks card, Fast Kart passes, College or Professional Sports Events, High School Sporting Events or Drama/Musical Event tickets, etc.
Ice Cream Bar Supplies: Ice Cream toppings, cute dessert dishes, ice cream/dessert maker, etc.
I just wanted to let everyone know that POQA has already randomly picked three students from our class to participate in the First Grade club. If you did not receive an email from me unfortunately your child was not selected to participate. If these students for whatever reason can not pay the fee on time (Thursday the 21st) or can not follow the contract POQA will randomly select another student to take their place.
I have had only one family sign up for Parent Teacher Conferences. For this reason I am shortening the amount of conferences I will be having on Thursday. If you need to meet with me a different day please contact me. Thanks so much!
