NEWSLETTER MRS. TURNER NOV. 5-9
NO SCHOOL- I hope you enjoyed your days off. Since we have a short week, there will not be a spelling test this Friday. We will use the same words next week.
HALLOWEEN ACTIVITIES- Many thanks to all of the parents who helped assist in the Halloween activities. I think the children really enjoyed themselves, and they learned a lot.
DOUGHNUTS FOR DADS- Please mark your calendars for Tuesday, November 20th from 8-9. We will be having a celebration in honor of our fathers.
ACCLERATED READER- Remember, we want everyone to earn 10 points by the end of the nine weeks. We are also looking for a comprehension average of 80% or higher. Please ask you child how he/she is doing. We are in the middle of the fourth week right now.
FISH TESTS- Keep studying! Learning the multiplication facts is a very important part in forming a strong math foundation. PLEASE help your child study on a nightly basis. Students who pass on a “Real Deal” day, move up to the next table. Students who don’t pass, stay on the same table for three more days.
IN SCHOOL FIELD TRIP- We will be having our Magnets lesson on Thursday from 12:30-2:00.
VULCAN ROCK QUARRY FIELD TRIP- Permission forms came home last Thursday for the Vulcan Rock Quarry. Please mark if you would like a lunch from school or if you are bringing your own. If you would like to chaperone, send me a note and I’ll draw from all of the names that I get. This field trip is on Tuesday, December 11th.
BINGO NIGHT- Come join other Ford families this Friday from 6:30-8:00.
BARNES AND NOBLE- Join Ford teachers and students Nov. 12-16 at Barnes and Noble at the Avenue. They will have special discounts, and a portion of the money spent on those days will be given back to Ford. Great ideas for holiday presents!
FORD FEAST- Our class will be able to invite friends and family for Thanksgiving Feast on Thursday, November 15th from 12:15-1:00. Please return your orange reservation form by Friday, November 9th. A photographer will also be available for family portraits for $10.
