FEBRUARY 9

Thank you for all who have sent in erasers, glue sticks, antibacterial wipes. etc. I appreciate it!

Several students have not returned the parent slips about the First Communion dinner. They were due today. Please check with your child and see if he/she still has theirs and send it in tomorrow. Thanks!

With the economy as it is, people have quit sending things in for the soldiers, so we will give up this project. We can still send cards, notes, etc. but we won't be sending any packages after the last three we have ready to go. I sent two more on Saturday and used my own $24 for that. I simply can't afford to pay for the rest of the boxes. We have two more at $12 each and one smaller one to go yet. If anyone can help with postage for these last packages, we'd really be grateful. I know you have been asked to donate a lot this year for our class and the school, and you have done a great job! Thanks for all you do!!

We planted bean seeds today for science. I hope they grow! We are studying about the life cycles of plants.

In Math, we practiced time BEFORE the hour today. That's a little harder than time after the hour, but we'll get it! They like it when I use the overhead projector and they can take turns on it showing how to set the clock to the time. ( We use the overhead for other subjects, too.)

Because of the rain off and on at noon, we stayed in again. Today I put on a Denise Austin kids exercise DVD for them. They seemed to enjoy it. We just need more room for two classes to move in here :-) At least they were able to move and use some energy!

Have a good evening!
