Good Sunday morning everyone. The wind sounds like a freight train coming through up here on the Mud Hill. There is no snow in sight. So sad!
We have been busy all week tearing the house apart looking for pictures of my dad dressed up in his Marine garb. We finally found the album I was looking for. My hometown is New York is doing a program through the art department at the high school. They are hanging flags of deceased veterans from all of the armed forces. They will put them on the main streets of the city. I can now complete the application and send in the proper paper work. Can't wait to see the flag when it is completed. This week we will be focusing on the Aimsweb reading and math tests. We will test Monday through Thursday. The test will take place at 10:00 and will take about 90 minutes. Please remind the kids to do their best work. Try to have them eat something before they come to school and try to have them get a good night's rest. I know they will do their best. We will not be doing Wonders reading this week. The spelling words will also look a little different. They are posted on the spelling page. We will be starting our first lengthy formal writing assignment. This will take a few days to complete. It will be an opinion writing piece. In math, we will continue on measurement, area and perimeter. Please have the kids keep studying their 3's and 4's times tables. We will be finishing up our weather unit also. The kids are experts on climate all around the world. The kids continue to do a great job on their work in and out of the classroom. I am amazed at the amount of work that we can get done in each cohort. We are back to a full class in each cohort. We had a great meeting on Friday morning. The kids get along so well and we really have a lot of fun in the class meeting. The other teachers at school are always telling us how well the kids in my class get along. They play well together and take care of each other. I am so proud of them. Today looks like a great day for football. I can't wait to see who will go to the Super Bowl. I would love to see Tampa Bay vs. Kansas City. Have a good rest of the weekend. Don't forget to bring in your work and your spelling tests. See you soon. Comments are closed.

I Believe...Let the kids be kids. Every child has a strength. It is up to the teacher to find it or tap it so they can work to their highest potential. I tend to set the bar very high. Lifetime memories should be made in the classroom and at school. NBCS should be a place where kids enter happy and go home with a smile on their face. I want my kids getting up in the morning begging to go to school! Archives
