Families,

I will no longer be using the student planner for the remainder of the year. Next year the students do not get one, so I use this time getting them used to being responsible without their planner. If something major is coming up, I will send out an email. Please be sure I have your email address and that it is current. If you are getting my newsletter via email, you should be good to go. This week we will begin our Nike persuasive essay, and review inferencing, Battle of the Books is this Friday. If you plan on attending, please be sure to sign in at the elementary office and then head up to the high school auditorium. Have a great week!

Powder Ridge Send a lunch unless you ordered one from school

Workshop No school

Families,

Looks like we will have decent temps for Powder Ridge on Thursday!! That being said,  PLEASE make sure your child has the appropriate outdoor clothing. Be sure to work on those reading minutes for I Love to Read month. You can record your minutes on the bright pink reading log that was sent home last week. I will check them every Friday so I can keep track of where we are at for meeting our classroom goal. I hope we can get in a minimum of 540 minutes, more would be even better!!! This week we are learning about text evedence, multiple texts, and speaking/listening. Vocabulary quiz will be Tuesday, Feb. 17!! Also, there is no school Monday, Feb. 16. Enjoy the long weekend!! P.S. pizza pick up Feb. 21 9-10 am by the HS Activity center. You will need to pack your own orders so bring your child along to help :)
