Last Week of 2008
It's time to say goodbye to another year! Thank you for all your hard work this year and for it you get two weeks off, yeah!!!
A couple of events to conclude our year are as follows:
Homeless Bags- Your children will be making a homeless bag. This is a brown paper bag filled with water, snacks and a message of compassion. I encourage you to keep this bag in your car and when you see a homeless person, give them this bag. We would like to hear all the stories from this act of service. Instead of having a class party and asking for more goodies from you, we wanted to show our students that it is better to give than receive.
On Friday, we will hold our class auction. Some students have been saving their money from their ATM cards to be used at out class auction. We could still use some donations, so if you have anything laying around send it to school.
I wish you the warmest greetings this season. Thank you for giving me the priveledge to teach your child. It's funny and fun to write and say this...See you next year!
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas,
Ms. Kelley

Week of December 1-5
This is the first week of three weeks left before Winter Break! This time will be gone before we know it, so let's focus on learning as much as we can!
Before I give you updates about what we are doing in class, I want to tell our chorus students, good luck tomorrow! You have worked hard for tomorrow and you will be shining stars! Don't forget to smile!
Reading: Reading Goal: One book per week. One AR test per week. If you are reading a battle book, you need to check out another book that you can read and test on within a week. For the second week, you can test on your battle book. See me if you have questions!
Writing: Working on Personal Narrative Introductions. On Friday, we will be moving into the body paragraphs of our essays. Remember the five finger introduction!
