1 - On Wednesday, February 29th our class will be performing in the Music Share. I don't know what time the performance will be, but I will send out information once I receive it. We will be playing recorders, drums, and shakers. This event is being led by the S'cool Sounds music program we take part in on Tuesdays.
2 - Tomorrow, Thursday, February 16th our class will be visiting East Side Middle School. We will be hearing/reading nonfiction pieces of writing that the students at the middle school wrote. They will be similar to the nonfiction piece of writing we did in November/December but in a more advanced level. I think it will be a great way for our students to see where their work will be headed as they grow and mature as writers.
3 - You will be receiving a form regarding Cook Shop today. On Wednesday, February 29th, our class will be observed by people from Cook Shop during our chef lesson about grains. They will be bringing some reporters, apparently, as well. They need this form completed in order for your child to participate.
4 - If you have not done so already, please sign and return the last page in your child's progress report. There is also space for you to write comments/questions/concerns should you have any. There are a number of forms that have not been signed and returned. Thank you!
