I made a small mistake in the post about Valentine’s Day. We have THREE categories in the Valentine Box Contest.
1-Most Creative
2-Funniest
3-Most Unique
There will be three winners out of the class. 🙂

Hey there! Sorry this is so late getting out…I was in a meeting until 5:00, and then had to run and pick up my boys…
But I have a few things for the week…
first of all, NO READER RESPONSE JOURNALS THIS WEEK!! We have a lot coming up/to do this week, so we are taking a break from journals this week.
Words Their Way: We DO have Words Their Way homework this week! Tonight, the students should be brainstorming words that fit into the patterns we discussed in class. I will upload the lists, just in case, to the blog shortly. Every night this week, we will have WTW homework, which will be due the next morning.
Biography Bookmarks are due on the 12th!! These papers (which were printed and given to students a week ago–or you can find them on the blog) need to be completely filled out and brought in on the 12th. We will be typing them in class on the 13th-and then they will be printed to attach to the trifold for the Wax Museum.
As you are all aware, Valentine’s Day is on Friday. 🙂 We will be having a class party from 1-2. We will be doing center type rotations with games and activities and then we will pass out Valentines. Please follow school policy and do not attach candy/food to the Valentines. You are welcome to attach some other item such as pencils, stickers, bouncy balls, etc. We will be having a Valentine Box Contest on Friday as well. The students voted and there will be two categories to win: most creative and funniest. Students will vote on their favorites during the party on Friday. I will not be sending out a list of students’ names for Valentines. Instead, just have the students sign their names on the cards. This makes it a lot easier/faster to pass out Valentines, and then no one gets left out, etc. We will have 25 students receiving Valentines (and one teacher! hehehehe!!) 😉 Please send 25 Valentines with your student on Friday.
As you may have heard, we are starting our Rock Presentations! The kids are super excited..as am I!! I LOVED the fossil presentations, and can’t wait to see what the kids come up with this time! We will be presenting these the first week of March.
As always, all the due dates and upcoming events/activities are posted on our Classroom Calendar! 🙂
A day in the life…
