Dear Parents,

Ethan earned his turn for student of the week. I think he will continue to have his parent spelling letter signed each week by Thursday because HE LOVES TO PLAY THE SPELLING GAMES! All the students do, so please help them reach this goal each week. Tonight I will be sending home Letter #23. Here are the words they will need to conquer by Thursday:

1. except
2. cabin
3. were
4. where
5. business
6. work
7. I'm = I am
8. you're = you are
9. your
10. which
11. basketball
12. waiter
13. earthworms
14. owner
15. excitement

I believe they are extending the Jump A Thon contest for any online donations. Please encourage your child to sign up and send emails out. I have attached a flier (to the paper Gillespie Gazette) to explain the process. Anyway, I am hoping to attach it. (if I can find it)
We are a bit short compared to last year, so we are hoping we can get a few more donations turned in via email.

I will be attaching the SEP goal that you and your child decided on. This is a copy for you to keep. I have a copy here. Thanks for reviewing this goal with your child and keep reminding them to achieve it.

Last Friday, we had perfect attendance, so I sent home the Color Journals to give everyone a fair chance to win this contest. Steady Eddy is usually the winner, so stay with it. Good Luck.
Remember, I will write on the red page. Students will write on the purple page, and parents on the green. Have fun communicating through the written language.

Our Wax Museum is this Friday. How is everyone doing on their report, poster, and costume? March 25 is the day everything is due. Come join us at 10:00 to see a spectacular display of students learning. I have encouraged the students to use Elmer's Tri-Fold versus the flat poster paper. It will stand on its own instead of having to tape onto a wall or desk. Thanks for helping your child with this. I do have some costumes that I might be able to help your child with. Please let me know if I need to help them. I will bring costumes on Thursday so they can check them out. The museum will be held from 10:00 to 10:45. See you there.

I am attaching a "School Lunch Deposit" page to help your child when they need to bring lunch money. It is very time consuming when they have to do it at school. Please help them with this.
