I will need help with ice cream goodies. I just had a comment from Courtney's mom who said she would bring vanilla ice cream and crushed Oreos. Thanks, Katie! I will need more ice cream than one gallon or tub...so please consider donating.
Parent letter #17 due on Thursday and the Spelling Antonym/Syn. assignment.
Any one able to come help on Thursday at 1:00 to dish out ice cream? Thanks,

Dear Parents,
Parent letter # 17 is due on Thursday. Wouldn't it be great if all the students got to play in the Spelling Game on our Hundredth Day of School? This would tickle me pink! I will have a super fun game planned for them. Hope you help them be successful. I encourage you to actually read the instructions with the student so that the concept is taught and the page is done correctly. I expect because you have signed it, that you have helped them to reach 100% success!
I hope they will also pass off the spelling words to you. They will actually have a chance to win the spelling games if they know how to spell the following words:
porcupine
sloth
these
freeze-dried
partner
target
pulled
bowstring
Such a short list...surely they can memorize each one.
Avie was a great leader. She actually took time to help her fellow students be successful and get their work done and turned in. Thanks, Avie and we will enjoy your poster.
We have had a lot of effort to review the multiplication facts. Thanks for encouraging this. We have several girls that have become trained to help me pass off: Rebecca, Tenney, Danielle, and London. They have passed off to their twelves and will be invited to eat as much ice cream and toppings as their tummies can hold. I am hoping some boys will join them before Thursday.
I am begging for ice cream donations and toppings. The more the better. Also spoons, napkins, and bowls will be appreciated. We will have the party on Thursday, Feb. 3, at 1:00. Could I beg for some adult parent help in scooping ice cream for them all? Please, please, please! If you can start sending in the toppings and also commit to what ice cream you can bring, I will know how much I can plan on buying myself Wednesday night. Thank you ever so much. The kids will have a great day on Thursday (100th Day)
See attached flier.
Book order attached and also I will appreciate any Box Tops so I can recoup any money I might have to spend on the Ice Cream Multiplication Party. Thanks so much.

Math homework is page 143 problems 1-6.
Remind your child to read twenty minutes every evening.
I am probably preaching to the choir, but please take care to help your child understand the directions and concepts on the Spelling Parent Letter. I am counting on this. If I see a signature, I assume the concept was taught and the child did excellent work on it. Today I was a bit disappointed at all the mistakes and lack of following instructions on Parent Letter #16.

Just two problems on page 142 tonight for math homework. I gave the students time in class to start it and finish. I hope everyone gets to play the spelling game tomorrow. Please help them with the parent letter if you haven't done it yet.

Tonight's homework should be pretty easy (page 159 problems 1-23) But please encourage your child to review the math facts for speed and accuracy. We must have them conquered and learned.
Please remember if any math homework takes longer than 30 minutes, and the student is showing signs of frustration to close the book and let them take a break. I will help them the next day. Please remind them of this.

Dear Parents,
Math Homework tonight is on page 141 (1-4)
Parent Letter #16 and alphabetize list is due Thursday.
If your child can't spell the words below...practice with them until they can...PLEASE!
Spelling List:
outer
flies
landing-gear
head start
she
sister
playstation
we're
control tower
station wagon
smoothly
space shuttle
then
than
daydream
monkey
chattering
howling
Danielle had a chance to be the student of the week, it was a short week and because she was an awesome leader, she will get another turn to finish her week...either by the next short week, or another good long week. We love you Danielle!
I am about to teach your students how to do long division. It is going to be very difficult for them if they do not have their multiplication math facts memorized to the families of 12's. Please insist on them practicing and passing them off with you every night (work at least ten minutes after they have finished their math homework every night.) Then encourage them to come and pass them off with me during the school day (2-minute breaks, recess time, in line on the way to lunch, in the morning before school starts) We are working towards a ice cream sundae party. If they pass off their zeros, they will get a bowl, if they pass off their ones, they will earn a spoon, if they pass off their twos, they will get one scoop of ice cream, if they pass off their threes... two scoops, if they pass off their fours, they receive three scoops of ice cream. If they pass off their fives, they earn a topping, (their choice). If they pass off their sixes, they get a second topping choice, sevens...three toppings, eights...four, nines...five toppings, tens... six toppings, elevens...seven toppings and if they pass off their 12's they get to have as many toppings and as many helpings as they want at the party.
Your student went to Mrs. Muhlestein's class for Science the last three weeks and learned about soil. They are now attending Ms. Mullen's class and will learn about weather. They only get three weeks to conquer these concepts and then they take a test that will determine their science grade for this term. Please encourage them to do all assignments and listen well in Ms. Mullen's class during science to be able to do well on the test at the end of three weeks.

Math homework is page 155 (1-22)
The students were given time in class to write an essay on Generosity. They were taught about the six traits of good writing and were instructed about writing complete sentences and sentence fluency. They will be marked down if there are any incomplete sentences.
Most students did finish their essay in class, but there are a few that did not and will need to get that turned in soon.

Generosity Essay due by January 21. The students will be expected to create great sentences in writing this essay.
All students were given the opportunity to see what their scores looked like after I spent the weekend grading and entering scores. I have encouraged all those that are below 3 or 4 to do "Fix Its" and also do missing assignment. Please check up on your child's scores.
