The 4th grade musical "We Haz Jazz" is in rehearsals. Ms. Diaz-Leroy, the music teacher and director has discussed costumes with each class. So please ask your child what costume he/she needs. Contact me or Andi Mullins if you are having trouble with costuming.
This Friday Grandparents and Special Friends Day ends with a noon dismissal.
We begin a new unit in math. So please read the Family Letter for unit 7 together and pull out and retain the answers for use nightly with the Study Links homework.
The first fiction writing project (authoring a Little Miss/Mister type book) was a big success. More about that later. We will be sending home the first editions for you to enjoy. Please make sure they come back because we want to read them to first graders etc. Students are in the process of planning another book using the same process but produced at home and due when ready or in two weeks. The second in the series will be more from your child's perspective, interests and habits.
We are planning an event to share all our successful writing projects so far. Instead of inviting you to come to school twice in the next few weeks, we thought we would have the "author share" event right after the musical performance on Friday, February 3rd. The show ends at about 9:10. There's a small reception in our room and then the author share. Those who have to leave early will hear their children read first. You should all be finished by 10 or 10:15. Also more about this soon.
