Hi Parents,

Here is what we did today!

Miss Miller came today! She is another teacher. She has to stay the whooooooole day at school. (Livi and Rilen) Chelsea Miller is a MU Early Childhood Education teacher in our classroom this semester. She is looking forward to meeting you at Cocoa Night this Thursday!

We had math. We played Racing Bears. We had a partner. It was fun! (Kate, Anna, and Adeline)

We read My Uncle Martin’s Big Heart. It was by Martin’s niece. (Kamri)

We read a book called Young Martin Luther King Jr. “I Have a Dream”. (Crimson)

We did P.E. We had to switch stations. They were cool stations. (Cordae)

We did Fundations. We did L and K. We tapped out words. (Lexie T. and Kate)

We did writing. We did Weekend News. (Randy)

We did our choices in Daily 5. (Zain)

Don’t forget about our Cocoa Night Open House this Thursday! There will be hot chocolate and cookies in the cafeteria. There will be a fun scavenger hunt in the classroom. The event will go from 5-6:30 pm. Please feel free to pop in at any time.

Our class earned another set of 100 Cougar Compliments! To celebrate the class voted to have a “Bring Your Favorite Toy to School” party! We will be doing this on Friday, January 23rd! Each student is allowed to bring one small toy to school this day. This could be a small bag of legos or blocks, an action figure, a doll, stuffed animal, toy car, etc. No toy weapons please! Students are allowed to bring an electronic toy (such as a DS) as long as the sound can be turned off. Please make sure it is fully charged or has new batteries. Please do not send valuable electronic toys because these toys will be unsupervised at times (recess, specials, etc.) Students will have the opportunity to play with these items at specific points in the school day. They will only be allowed to play with the toy in the classroom setting (not bus line, etc.) Please let me know if you have any questions!

Have a great night!!
