Hello Parents,
Thanks to all of you who came out to our Parent Night last week. It was nice to see you again and to be able to talk with you about your questions and concerns. I am so thankful for each of you and for all of your support. If you were not able to attend, I sent our class disclosure letter home with your child. I want to briefly remind you of a couple items: HOMEWORK FOLDERS: Please be sure to check your child’s homework folder each evening, and send it back to school the next day. Any school-to-home communication, stamped school work, and daily phonogram papers can be kept at home. Please have your child complete his/her homework each night and return it to school the next day. ASPIRE: I sent home flyers about the ASPIRE program, with your student’s ID written on it. You can set up an ASPIRE account to see how your child is doing with schoolwork, and to see if there are any missing assignments. If a child is missing an assignment, I will mark it with an M. If it is an excused assignment, I will enter an E. If an assignment is blank on ASPIRE, I am still working on entering those grades. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** * CARNIVAL - This Friday, September 15th, is our school Carnival!! The fun will begin at 3:30 and continue until 7:00. Tickets can be purchased in advance through the office, or on the day of the carnival. I hope you will be able to come! Thank you so much to all of our generous families who were able to donate Legos for the Carnival raffle prizes. We appreciate you! HOME READING PROGRAM - Books were sent home last week for our Home Reading Program (AKA “Baggie Books”). I chose a reading level for each student to begin with, but if the books are too easy or too difficult, send a note with the returned books, or send an email to Ms. Beckstrand, our wonderful Librarian: [email protected] NETSMARTZ INTERNET SAFETY PROGRAM: Last week we had a school assembly and the Netsmartz group taught the students about internet safety. Today our class took a look at the Netsmartz website. There is a variety of fun songs, videos, games, and activities for you to do with your child. You can check it out together at http://www.netsmartzkids.org/ RED RIBBON WEEK: Next week our school will be participating in Red Ribbon Week, which is a time to remind kids to protect their bodies and their minds by making the choice to say no to drugs. Take a look at the flier to see ways that they can participate in the spirit of this week. AMBASSADOR OF EXCELLENCE: Congratulations to Madyln, our Ambassador of Excellence. Madlyn shows such excellence, both in the quality of her work, and in her genuine desire to be a great student and a great learner. We are proud of you, Madlyn. I will be watching for others in the class who exhibit the quality of excellence throughout the month of September, and will choose 3 students to receive an ambassador “honorary mention”. I am looking forward to a great week. Sincerely, Ms. Novotne
