Enjoy your break and bravos and accolades...

We hope you enjoy your winter break, the extra snow day was a FABULOUS way to start break!

Don't forget to continue to read over break, new reading logs will be sent home the first week back!

Finally, thank you to all who came to the winter concert. The students did a WONDERFUL job and we were very proud!

Thanks also to Rylee's mom and dad and the parents from Mrs. Gonzalez's room (I forgot the name, I'm so sorry!) The help you provided putting away all the chairs was very kind!
Check our Rylee's mom showing some muscles:

Report card input

Parents,
we'd like your input on the report cards,
too big, too small? too much info, not enough. What would YOU like the report card to show you?

I think we'll need a post off....

I wanted to say THANK YOU to the fab four that have read the blog:
Priscilla's mom
E.J.'s mom
Stafford's mom
and
Rylee's mom.

I think that Mrs. Gorbe is DEFINITELY winning:)
Shall we have a post off? How about it, Mrs. Gorbe's parents versus Mrs. Chappa's. Who ever comments most on this post, well you win the honor of being super blog readers:)

Friday was our first of three assemblies this year for student of the week.
Feel free to post your input about the assembly (if you were invited) .
Congratulations to all the winners!

Poinsettia Sale

Please remember to send in your order for a Poinsettia plant! This sale funds our visiting author each year, which is a valuable experience for ALL students AND their parents!
If each family can buy at least one plant, we would be well on our way to our goal!
Thanks so much!

Did you find your way to the blog?

We hope you find this blog to be useful!

Please check your child's backpack daily for papers.

Also, please make sure to return the Book-it Reading logs. Every child that returns their form filled out (we are hoping that you read 20 minutes 4-5 nights a week at least!), receives a coupon for a free personal pizza at Pizza Hut.

Beyond the pizza, students who read and are read to excel at a much quicker pace in literacy, both reading and writing.

Have a great week!
