Y P.E.

Friday:  

Y We will be celebrating Valentine’s Day.  This is a fantastic day to let people know how much you appreciate the things they do for you.  If you bring valentines, please bring one for each student in the class.  We won’t have a party, but we will have time to pass out Valentines and eat a treat. 

Y Spelling and story tests

Make sure you are reading every night!  Those who read at least 20 minutes a night (which is your goal anyway) will be invited to a popcorn party.    

Please have your banquet money here ASAP.  Bring it to the office in an envelope marked with your name, my name, banquet, and the amount.  We are asking each student to bring $2.00.

          Your MA project is due on the 23^rd which is 2 ½ weeks away!  I want to see every single one of you at the banquet.  I am a stickler on these project and will only except quality work.  Do your best and get it done early.     

          The last day of the trimester is rapidly approaching – March 4^th!  That is the day after the banquet.  You need to make sure that you have all late work in that day – no acceptions!  If you don’t get your work in, you won’t get the credit.  I am not afraid to give you an “N” (which is equivalent to an “F”).  It is my dream to give every student an “A” in every subject, but I can only give you the grades you earned.  If you are missing work, it is your responsibility to come and get it for me during a recess. 

          I think you are all wonderful, kind people and I’m grateful that I get to be your teacher.

                                                                             Sincerely,

                                                                             Miss Buck
