Peanut Butter & Jelly Drive

Thank you -thank you to all of you that have donated to the Peanut Butter & Jelly drive.  Your generosity will help those less fortunate.  If you would still like to help, it is going until Friday, November 20th.
Students who were lunch helpers for the 1st Quarter were treated to a Pizza Lunch today.  I am so happy to announce that Team Hankins has donated many hours to helping out our school and taking their lunch recess time.  Great school service.
Lead 21 Endangered Animal Reports-students are working on a lengthy, in-depth endangered animal report here at school doing research and finding information.  The one thing we will need your help for is finding 2 pictures that you can print off for their poster board to go with the report.  Thank you.
This is our Inquiry Project for Unit 2.  We have learned a lot about "Going Green & Reducing our Carbon Footprint".  We will have the whole unit complete by Thanksgiving Break.
We just finished the book, Naya Nuki.  Ask your child that if they were Naya Nuki for one day, what adventure that she had on her journey would they like to have.  Write it in the planner for free money.
Just a reminder to mark your calendars for November 24-27.  Early Out on the 24th and No School on 25-27.
Author Bill Merical is coming on Tuesday, November 17th and we are so excited.  The students will have lots to share with you after his visit.  Plus they each received an autographed copy of the book.
As you saw from the Northeast States & Capitals test, some students didn't do real well so for this time only, I am giving them a 2nd chance to try again.  If your child is interested, they need to see me by Friday, November 20th to get another test.  Then I will average the 2 grades for their final test grade.
Congratulations to Cooper, our student of the week.  It was so fun hearing all about him and here are some of his favorites:  cheesy hot dogs, math, hunting, pink, and Christmas.  He describes himself as "fun" and we would agree.  He loves learning about Montana History.  His idea of a perfect day is hunting.  Twenty years from now, he hopes to be a professional hunter with his own TV show called Hunting Wild.  How cool is that. Cooper, I sure loved your Brett Favre card!!!!   Remember Dream-Believe-Achieve!!!!
