Week of Feb. 17-21

Thank you so much to all the parents who volunteered for our Valentine party. We couldn’t do these fun things without your help. 

This Week’s Happenings:  
Mon. 2/17: No School
Fri. 2/21: Early release

Announcements:
Fundraiser: As we didn’t quite reach our Little Caesars goal, the fundraiser will be extended until Friday, February 28th.  For every three cards sold by elementary students, they will receive a prize. Also, the top three classes will win a pizza and ice cream party. Currently we are in 3rd place!!
The Little Caesars Breadstick cards are $10 and gives you 10 bags of breadsticks and crazy sauce. These usually cost over $4. This gives you a savings of over $30. Quest makes $7 off of every card students sell. The money raised for this fundraiser helps with field trips, field day, after school clubs and other school activities. These cards make great gifts for neighbors, friends, and family members. 

Math in Class
We will be solving 2-STEP word problems using addition and subtraction strategies. Please watch for practice pages to come home. I know homework is optional, but if you could talk about it at home, it would be greatly appreciated. 

Reading Homework (optional, but highly encouraged!!) 
Enjoy your time at home with your kids and continue to encourage them to read for enjoyment! You can even read to them!! 20 minutes a day is a great goal. Remember to fill out your monthly reading log if you want a prize.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
