The PTO is
holding a Chinese Auction again this year as a fundraiser. Each class is doing a themed basket. Our basket theme is “I Want Candy!”. We are asking that parents donate an item or
items to contribute to our class basket.
You can send any brand or size of candy.
Please send in your item before Monday,
March 27. Thank you in advance for
your donation! The classroom from each
grade whose basket has the most tickets at the end of the auction will receive
an ice cream party!!
Most of you
have probably heard from your child by now that I am expecting a baby in
May. Every summer I ask for a family to
volunteer to give a loving home to our class pets for our summer vacation. This year is a little different because the
lucky family will get to keep our guinea pigs (Ron and Darth Vader) from the
first week of May (when I have the baby) until we return to school in August! The only requirements are that you promise to
keep them safe from any other animals in your home, make sure they have food
and water at all times, and that someone will gently handle the guinea pigs a few
times a week. If your family is
interested in taking care of our much loved class pets for the summer please
contact me as soon as possible. If a few
families are interested, I will pick names from a hat. Thank you!
Friday,
March 31 is a dress down day for Autism Awareness. Please send your child to school in blue
jeans and a blue shirt to show our support for all of our friends with autism.
Don’t forget
to do a quick review of your child’s sight words every night. Remember, students must learn all 96
Kindergarten sight words by the end of the year!
