Report Cards Are Arriving Today!

BRRRRRRRRRR!! Mother Nature is not letting up! Maybe tomorrow will be outdoor recess if it warms up, so make sure you dress for it so you can go out in the snow if the temps. allow. The kids are doing very well with indoor recess though keeping themselves busy with work, games, and puzzles.
Today, we discussed our Persuasive Writing. Some students need to re-visit theirs tonight and make some corrections and then return them tomorrow. So assigning Part 2-the rewrite- will be put "on hold" until tomorrow. I want to make sure everyone is ready to move on. Great job to those that don't have it to re-do tonight. Those that do either wrote their details as opinions and need to reword them, wrote about the wrong topic, or they need to finish as they were incomplete. Come on Team Hankins' YOU CAN DO IT!!
Pennies For Patients: We only collected $8.31 this week. Keep looking around the house for that loose change.
Library: We will not have Library tomorrow due to Venture Theater so students will check out books on Monday afternoon.
Remember to be working on those Biographies. They are due on Friday, January 27th, just one week away.
Report Cards should be in your hands by the time you read this. Overall, they are very good and kids are doing a good job. I hope you take the comments I wrote seriously. Students who made Terrific Kids Club or BUG Club do not know yet as it will be a surprise at the assembly. I love surprises and to see their faces when their names are called.
Venture Theater performance tomorrow at 1;00, 2:00, and again for parents at 6:00. These kids are going to make us so proud.
Have a great night and stay warm. Yippee-I get to go home and shovel. See why I don't like snow-shoveling is a waste of time. The good thing is, there is some exercise that goes along with it. :))
