Welcome back!
I certainly hope each of you had a wonderful winter break! For me, it was a week of sleeping and resting to get over a virus that had a hold of me for the entire time. At least I could sleep in and rest as much as I wanted to without feeling guilty! I am eager to get back to school and see all of the students and hear about everyone's break. I want to express my sincere thanks to those of you who took time to write me a note, or give me a gift during teacher appreciation week. It is so sweet when parents and students make that little effort to show how much they appreciate the hard work that I do every day. You all put a big smile on my face with your extra special gifts, and the lunch provided by the PTA was delicious. Thank you very much! REMINDERS:
I hope you all have a wonderful week! Please email me with any questions or concerns. Hello again,
Thank you for coming back to my blog. It makes me happy when I know you are reading this! Thank you so much to Ava S. for responding to my plea for more pencils! I also want to thank Logan, Josh, and Justin for their heartfelt handwritten cards! Don't forget that on Tuesday we will be handing out Valentine's cards after lunch. If you don't want to participate, you don't have to. If you have a box or bag that you'd like to put your cards in, please bring it in. Otherwise, I will have a bag that you can decorate before school on Tuesday. As this week is kindness week, we are having a door decorating contest here at school. I am so proud of the kids for doing this mostly by themselves. I love how they are working together to design and create this. Progress reports will go home on Tuesday. Don't forget that this is Hoops for Heart week. Our class will go to PE on Monday AND Tuesday to take part in this worthy cause. Don't forget that next week is our February break. Enjoy the rest of this week and next! Ms. Ryan Hello parents!
I have a few important reminders for you, and also ask that you check out the ELA page for resources to help your child with what we are learning, and other curriculum information. A lot of information has been sent home recently that you should be aware of. Last week we sent home your child's midterm data information sheet. This week there were two permission slips: one for the 5th grade field trip, and the other for the Human Growth and Development classes. There was also a half slip piece of purple paper with information about visits to and from Awtry and Palmer. I hope you've had a chance to see and sign everything. If your child has misplaced something, feel free to send me an email or note and I will send you a replacement. I'd also like to remind you that our book fair is next week, and we have some exciting and fun activities centered around that. A flyer went home outlining all the different opportunities there are. Last, but certainly not least, WE NEED PENCILS! I have completely run out of the pencils that were sent in at the beginning of the year, and students from all three classes come to me daily asking for pencils. Please check with your child to see if they need more pencils. I had been freely giving out pencils from my personal supply, but to be honest, I'm down to my last 10, so I won't be able to keep supplying students with pencils anymore. Thank you for attending to this matter. Thank you for visiting the blog. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, the best way to get in touch is via email: [email protected]. Have a great week! |
