Important Announcements:
*Congratulations to Anah,
Ayden, Anna, Charlie, and Davian! They
all leveled up on the Super Improver Wall in the classroom. In order to level up, a child has to earn ten
stickers for showing improvement academically and behaviorally. Way to go, Anah, Ayden, Anna, Charlie, and
Davian!
*Thank you to everyone that
has donated to the food drive this week.
We are extending it another week and have specific items for second
graders to bring in. Please see the attached
flyer for details.
*I sent home a class list
today so if your child is planning on passing out valentines, he/she will have
the class list. Please make sure that if
your child passes out valentines that they are school appropriate and that your
child has enough for all of the children in our class. You can start sending valentines in to be
passed out the week of February 9th.
Your child will bring his/her valentines home on Friday, February 13th. I have also attached a class list to this
e-mail in case your child misplaces his/her list.
*Our Winter Carnival
(formally Spring Fling) will take place on Friday, February 27th
from 5:00 – 8:00 p.m. Our class basket
this year is a scrapbooking theme. If
you would like to donate anything for our class basket, please send in
donations no later than Friday, February 20th.
*Yearbook order envelopes
were sent home last week. If you are
interested in ordering a yearbook or class composite picture (or both!) please
fill out the envelope and return it to school with payment by Friday, February
27th.
*Mrs. Hopkins has scheduled
Come Play with Me for our class on Thursday, February 26th from 2:10
– 2:55 p.m. Wear some comfy clothes and
plan on having fun with your child during his/her P.E. class! In order to participate in Come Play with Me,
you will need to have a background check on file.
*Dear Parents:
Thank you so much for helping us raise $8,000.00 for the American Heart Association. These funds will go to help our Hendricks county families. Our school will also receive some U.S. Games certificates to purchase fun things for our school. The other ducks and thank you gifts will come in 4-6 weeks!

*Continue to work on addition
and subtraction math facts. Make sure to
use those fact triangles that were sent home, or you can practice for free
online at www.xtramath.org.
*If anyone is able to come in
and volunteer next week, send me an e-mail and let me know what day and time
works best for you! Thanks!
*I believe in building relationships with the children both
inside my classroom and outside the classroom.
If your child participates in any extracurricular activities (sports,
dance, theater, etc.), or has any other events that he/she would like to invite
me to, please let me know, and I will do my best to come!
