Tomorrow's Flakesgiving Buy In

Looking good Mr. Ness!!

Tomorrow's Flakesgiving Buy-in consists of wearing pajamas/robe, and slippers may be brought for inside wear, bring your favorite stuffed animal, and having a candy treat for snack. Again 1=$1--2=$2--3=$3. Thank you to those of you that can contribute and wish to.
Social Studies test-Overall, the students did well and I gave them 2 grades. When you see their test, the first grade is for knowing the states & capitals and the second grade is for location.
I haven't checked part two yet of their 4 places in the NE with 3 facts for each, but as I scanned them they looked quite good. Way to go Team Hankins!

Multiplication Websites-We went on the Blog today and practiced our multiplication facts. There are 3 great sites to go to and they know what they are and I EXPECT them to be using these. Also, there are many others on the Bitterroot Home Page that they can go to to practice. I will be able to tell because of how they do in their daily/weekly timings so PRACTICE-PRACTICE-PRACTICE!!

Dressing for the weather-students have been doing a good job of dressing for the weather with coats, mittens, and hats. Keep it up and stay warm.

CELEBRATION-students have earned their next 25 celebration points so we are going to celebrate on Friday with board game fun in the afternoon and I will provide hot chocolate.
Also, on Friday is the annual Cat/Griz pre-game fun. Students will be paid $500 for wearing MSU Bobcat gear and lose $500 for wearing Griz gear (just kidding)! -:
Make sure you cheer for the Cats because if the Cats win, then Ms. Erickson will bake cookies for our class and she is a much better baker than I am!!!!
Ask your child what our word of the week is this week and what they do to feel this way.
If you write it in your child's planner, they will receive free money tomorrow at check in.
Have a great night and stay warm.

Each flash-card even has a map on the back to show you where the state is located.
