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.
