Week of January 30th

I hope everyone had a restful weekend!  On Tuesday, we will be celebrating our 100th day of school. This is always a very fun day for the students.  We will have a rotation where the students will go to each of the first grade classrooms for a different 100th day activity.

In my classroom, they can bring 100 items.  Examples are: pennies, cereal, cotton balls, Legos, candy, etc.  We will be counting these items different ways.  Please have your child bring their items in a Ziploc baggy.  We will also be making a Fruit Loop necklace with 100 Fruit Loops.  Those are always fun to munch on!

The weather looks decent this week!  Just remember to send your child with the appropriate gear if they want to play in the snow.  The students have done a pretty good job keeping track of their gloves and hats this year!  I make them clean out everything in their lockers on Fridays so they don't accumulate much.  If your child is missing something, we have a couple of lost and found tables outside of the office to check.
