Report cards are being sent home today.  Please sign the envelope and return it to school next week (you can keep the report card itself).

We are working on a reading project where the students dress up as the main character of the historical fiction book they just finished reading.  Please don't feel like you need to buy anything for this or go to elaborate measures to come up with a costume.  We will do the presentations next Friday, Feb 7.  For the presentation, students will share a summary of the book they chose and then have classmates interview them as if they were the main character (while dressed up as the character).  We will work on the summarizing and interviewing at school, but if you could give a hand at home with the dress up part, that would be great.

Also, I will be sending home a list of students' names for Valentine cards.  Please remember that if your child wishes to bring cards to pass out, he/she needs to have one for every member of the class (14 students).  Thanks!
