Twin/ Look Alike Day and 100th Day too!

I polled the students today to make sure everyone had a look alike friend with which to dress tomorrow for twin day.

Tomorrow is also the 100th day of school. We will be doing activities throughout the day to celebrate. Our service project for this day has just about reached its' goal. We were trying to collect 100 canned goods for Bluffton Self Help. We are at 98!

Tomorrow is a picnic lunch outside. Students should bring a towel or small blanket to sit on.

Students may purchase and decorate a cupcake for $1. All proceeds will benefit a Catholic school in Charleston, SC.

100th Day of School!

Next Wednesday, February 1st, we will celebrate the 100th Day of School! We will be taking part in many activities that involve counting to 100. To combine this celebration with an act of service, we are asking for each child to bring in 4 canned goods. This is bring us to just over 100 canned goods that we will be able to donate to Bluffton Self Help.

Auction Item

Parents, our bookshelves are under construction and should be on display by Muffins for Moms. We will have two differnt bookcases, one built like a king or queen's throne with shelving underneath a seat and the other as a longer floor shelf that also includes a reading seat. We are asking that each child choose one gently used book from their own collection at home to donate to the auction item. We will display these books on the shelf. We are also including two Hallmark recordable holiday books as an added bonus as well as some baskets for housing books. Let me know if you have any other wonderful ideas.

Please allow your child to bring in one gently used book to donate to the auction.

Happy New Year!

Perhaps 2012 is a good time to begin a blogspot for students and parents. We have had a wonderful 85 days of school so far. I am so proud of how well students work together and help each other. I will keep this site mostly for sharing spelling words, but will also post other helpful forms such as reading logs, book report pages, newsletters, and any other requests. I hope you will find it beneficial.
