New Info:
Tuesday, 3-02-10, is the Spelling Bee. The top three spellers from our class are competing against students from the other third grades and the fourth grade classrooms at 9:00 a.m. in the cafeteria. Congratulations and Good Luck to our competitors.

Tuesday, 3-02-10, is Dr. Seuss’ Birthday. Students are permitted to wear Dr. Seuss clothing to school. Please bring a favorite Dr. Seuss book to class to share with others.

Wednesday, 3-03-10 is a $1.00 Dress Down Day. Students may wear school appropriate clothing of their choice to school for $1.00.


Reminders:
Some students are becoming lax about turning in homework on time. As a result, they are having so much to do during Homework Club, they are not finishing all their work. This is causing them to fall behind, and will affect their grade. Friday, 03-05-2010 is the last day assignments may be submitted for credit this quarter. Students have received all missing assignments a minimum of three times, by the end of the week they are issued. Additional copies will not be made unless requested. All requests must be submitted by 03-02-2010. This will give me time to prepare the copies, and the student time to complete the work.

Students should be reading a minimum of 1 hour a week. Each reading session should be recorded on the reading log, and submitted to me on Friday.

I encourage you to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns. You may call the school to set up an appointment, or email me at mpelchy@cox.net. View my blog at http:mrspelchy.blogspot.com/ for
