Congratulations!!  Your children have made it to the 100th day of First grade in school!!  We had a very exciting day today.  The kids rotated to different first grade classroom to do various 100 Day activities. I sure enjoyed hearing what they think $100 can buy!  Thank you for helping with the 100 day snack... they LOVED it!

EXCITING NEWS:  First Grade will perform for the next PTA meeting on February 2nd @ 7 pm.  They will be singing songs to celebrate Black History Month.  Please make sure you child is on stage in the cafe ready @ 6:55 pm. next Thursday night.  Please have your child wear jeans and a solid colored shirt.  Be here EARLY to get a seat and parking spot!!

We will begin learning about Theodore Roosevelt, who loved nature and was instrumental in starting National Parks.  Be looking for Flat Teddy to send to an out of state friend or relative so that we can learn about National Parks all around the United States!

The students have starting "scrolling"... this is writing their numbers 100 at a time and adding it to their scrolls!  They LOVE it!  Ask your child where they are. 

Thanks goes out to Nathan's mom for being the helper parent and story parent this week!  The kids Loved your stories!  Next week, I have Leila's dad as our helper parent and Abby's mom as the story parent.  Remember, next Friday is Spirit Day.  Be sure to wear your Dalmatian shirt on that day!  Also, start to save a good shoebox to ready for our valentine card exchange.  A letter will go home soon about that. Also, I sure everyone is READING and recording it on the HW sheet and the Six Flag form so you can get credit and a free ticket to Six Flags.

Have a Wonderful Weekend!!
