Look what we did today!

Hello everyone:

We certainly had a busy day. I am so proud of all we got accomplished. I am very excited about how well you understood our lesson on prepositions and I can't wait to display your prepositional poems. The poems I have seen are absolutely beautiful.

Word on the street is that tomorrow in gym you will be doing some line dancing. If you want to bring cowboy boots and hats to wear in gym, you certainly may. I might just have to peek into the gym to see what you are doing tomorrow. It sounds like fun.

January reading calendars went home today. Remember for 2009 all students are required to read 210 minutes each week--the comes to 30 minutes a night. Please remember to record how many minutes you read each night as well as the book title:-) For Jan 1-4, I won't be a stickler if you can't remember how many minutes you read because you didn't have the calendar.

Make sure you update your families on the many exciting things you are doing on your student council committees. I am so proud to say that every person in our room is somehow involved with a student council committee. FPA is so blessed to have you students as its leaders.

Homework tonight: math homework (30 minutes), read for 30 minutes, Spanish verb paragraph (have a family member read it while you act it out--don't forget to have the reader sign your sheet), type your prepositional poem.

Remember: foreshortening art project due Monday (add color and a background)
