Happy New Year!

We've been back a week and a half now and things are back down to business!

Ski Trip

Ski trip forms went out last week. We would like those to be returned by this Friday the 15th!

Cost for the kids is $6.00... parents are $10.00. This is a GREAT deal considering that it is usually around $50.00 for ski rentals and a lift pass on normal days. Parents... even if you have never learned to ski this is a GREAT time to learn! The instructors are awesome and start everyone one out at the same level. Usually by mid morning, most have graduated the bunny hill and are on the chair lifts. More information to follow!

Conference Forms

Conference forms also went home yesterday... the times are the SAME time slots that you had last sememster, so it should just be a matter of checking off the correct time and returning the slip. I have 28 kids now and only 24 spots... so I appreciate those parents who have agreed to do their conferences before or after school! Conferences start February 1st.

A.R. Goals

The A.R. 75% reading goal is Monday the 18th! MANY of the kids have been staying in at recess for not hitting their 50% goal before christmas break. I have 8 as of today that are still staying in... if you want to know if one of these little procrastinating cherubs is yours, zip me an email and I'll let you know where your student is in their goal.

Science

Groups A & C had science LAST week. Groups B & D have Science this week and we are turning in our "Objects in the Sky " books. Their new books are called "Forces and Motion". We'll be working on pages 1 - 4 this week. Those parents who's kids had science LAST week, please make sure they have these pages done.

Thanks!
