Report Cards

Report cards come home tomorrow. Please try to highlight all the positive and then discuss how your child can improve in other areas.  Please sign and return the envelope.

In math we have been working on counting by tens to 130.  The students have learned how to group items into groups of 10 to make counting easier. We will begin working on tens and ones next.  I have added a few games to the blog to reinforce this skill.


The 100th day of school is on the 28th of January.  We will be making a 100-day stew.  Each student is to bring 100 edible items that will fit in a quart size Ziploc.  Please count these out with your child and put your child’s name on their bag. Some ideas are: Skittles, cereal, chocolate chips, small marshmallows, smarties,   . . . . . Please make sure all items are nut-free and are not processed in a factory that also processes nuts.  It will say right on the label.  We have an allergy so PLEASE make sure.  Many items contain nuts that you would not expect . . .like OREOS.

Do you have old Christmas cards that you are going to throw away?  If so, we could use the front of the card for a labeling project.  Just simply cut off the front of the card or send the whole card and I will take care of it.


Does your child know how to tie their shoes?  If not, please work on this at home.  Unfortunately, I do not have time to tie 21 pairs of shoes.  Now I will be telling your child to ask three then ask me so they will be asking their classmates to help.  I am guessing that some students will be getting lots of practice.  Thanks for your support!

Wishing you well,
Wendy Martin
