Dear Parents,
Welcome to February! We are getting to a very busy time of the school year. So, I wanted to let you know about various things going on in our classroom.
First, some of you may be wondering what we will be doing for Valentine's Day. We will be celebrating Valentine's Day on Tuesday, February 14th. We will be having our Valentine's Day parties in our original homeroom classes. That means I will be having a Valentine's Day party with my afternoon students. Likewise, Mrs. Eng will be having a Valentine's Day party with her afternoon students. My afternoon students are invited to bring Valentines to pass out to the class on Tuesday, February 14th. They will also be making a Valentine bag at school, so you do not need to make anything at home. Look for a class list to come home soon, so that your child can address his/her Valentines.
Second, we will be studying patriotism as part of our Social Studies curriculum in February. As part of the unit, we will be learning about our national symbols. Each child will be expected to complete a project about a national symbol of his/her choice. I will be sending home more information about this project next week.
I also wanted to remind you that the end of the second trimester is Thursday, February 16th. I will be sending home a current progress report with your child this week. The progress report will show all current and missing tests, assignments, and homework for the second trimester. If your child has any missing work that they would still like to receive credit for, it will need to be turned in by Friday, February 10th. Please give any reading, spelling, or handwriting homework/assignments to Ms. Farnsworth. And give any math, Chinese, or interconnections homework/assignments to Miss Li.
Finally, S.E.P. Conferences coming up in a couple of weeks. S.E.P. Conferences will be on Wednesday, February 22nd and Thursday, February 23rd. The conferences will be held from 9:00 AM until 7:30 PM on these two days. Please sign-up for a conference time at the office. Be thinking about the goals that we set in November and decide what would be good goals for your child this next term.
Thank you for all of your help and support!
Ms. Farnsworth
