News for 12/11/07
- Whew! What a long day! Our field trip seemed to go well for the most part. I hope the students enjoyed themselves and learned something. In future trips, I’ll need to buckle down on some behavior issues so we can use our time more effeciently.
- It looks like now that our Science test (chapter 1) is on Thursday and our Reading quiz (Caleb’s Story) is on Friday. There are no vocabulary words for this quiz. It will be short and sweet.
- Our class party is December 20th at 1:00 p.m. One tradition I have in my classroom is a book exchange. Each student needs to get a nice holiday-related book. Don’t spend more than $15.00. I found a nice list here:

Most book stores have a good selection sitting out. Let me know if you have any questions.
- I’m a little behind on graded papers and tests. I haven’t recovered since my absence in October! Thanks for your patience.
- “Holiday Fever” has hit our class. We still have some important things to do before grades are finished. I’m counting on my students to listen when I speak, follow my directions quickly and quietly, and complete their work. Rumor has it Mr. Jacks knows Santa’s phone number!
- Have a great week!
I plan to attend the Christmas party next week. I will be glad to help with anything needed. Thanks!
Thanks. I’ll let our room mother know!
Mr.Kelsey I am also planning to be at the party if you need anything just let me know, I will help out!
