Oh my! I am sorry for the lack of updates. Here is some important information to know about the next few weeks:
Friday, February 17 will be Spring Picture Day. We will be taking class pictures and individual Spring photos. Everybody will be in the class picture, but only students who order the individual pictures will get those taken. I sent home the order papers last week. If you need another, please let your kiddo or I know (via email or class dojo is best). I will send more papers and order envelopes home.
Wednesday, March 1 will be our first class field trip to the Alberta Bair to watch "Lights! Camera! Math! The show starts at 9:30, so we will leave in the morning before that. Please keep an eye out for permission slips for this trip.
Friday, March 3 will be our school carnival in the evening. Our class has voted to make an ocean themed basket for this year's raffle fundraiser. I will be sending home more information and a list of ideas that the students have, but you can send any "ocean-themed" item that you can think of. For those of you that are unfamiliar with the basket, each class is in charge of providing one basket of items. They are to be grouped around a central theme. If your family is in a position to purchase any items (or send money...that works too!), then you would send the item to school. We've had a parent volunteer to organize and put the basket together. It is then displayed the week before the carnival and raffled off carnival night. Everyone's efforts really come together to make beautiful baskets. It's pretty impressive, and they are a fun fundraiser for the school.
Also, my phone has been intermittently allowing me to get messages. If you have left messages or need to get a hold of me, please use email or class dojo to check in. Calling me works as well, as long as the phone works!
Thank you,
Mrs. Urbaniak
