The class did a wonderful job last week while I was out (daughter had the flu). I was so proud of them and they were able to earn enough cotton balls for our fluff jar to earn a class party. We celebrated all the compliment collections last Friday with a little treat.
There are a few items the class needs to start bringing in for our “Caps for a Cause” campaign. These items include, clean milk jugs, shoe boxes and labels. We will prepare them this week to deliver them to the other classes next week, so they can support our cause.
This week you will I will be sending home an outline for the Human Body Project. Please note that it will be due within 2 weeks of when it is sent home. This project will be done mostly at home. I will give 2-4 opportunities for research in the computer lab and media center.
Have a stellar week…and please make sure everyone is doing their homework each night. They are earning stickers for our Pumkinfest on Oct. 29th (Class Party)!!! If they do NOT have enough stickers, they will NOT be able to participate.
