4. Family Literacy Night Thursday, January 26 - I have only received 3 confirmations. Please send the form back on Monday. If you need a new form, please email me and I will send a form in the agenda. We need to know in advance how many people are coming. There is a $10.00 family fee to cover supplies and pizza. Thanks!
5. FYI - we have began Literature Fridays. Each Friday we read a book or books on a theme and complete activities. Today our theme was Winter. We read about animals that hibernate or sleep in winter. We made warm 'quilts' for an art project. Look for them on our bulletin board on Family Literacy Night. We also discussed global warming and how we can all do our part to help preserve the habitat of the polar bears. Then we made a'polar bear' snack!
Last Friday we made butter and buns as we have been reading Little House in the Big Woods and discussing how people lived long again.
Literature Fridays gives me the opportunity to read a lot more literature to the students which improves their own vocabularies,and reading and writing skills; complete Art and listening activities and just have a fun conclusion to our week.
Have a great weekend!
