New Info:
Congratulations to all those who participated in the Talent Show. You did a fabulous job!

Spelling words are getting harder. It will be necessary to spend more time at home practicing them.

As the weather is getting warmer, I recommend that all students bring a water bottle to school. They may keep it on their desk.

Reminders:
Spelling list schedule.
Week: 3-22-10 list 25
3-29-10 no list due to Easter Break
4-05-10 list 26
4-12 10 no list due to AIMS testing

Our last break for this year is April 1, 2010 to April 5, 2010. There will be no school during that time.

The AIMS testing is the week of April 12, 2010. Students should come to class on time that week, as they will not be admitted to class if testing has started that morning. Late arrivals will wait in the office until all classes are finished testing for the day. Testing is mandatory. If a student misses part of the test, he/she will make it up the following week.

Test tips:
1. Get a lot of sleep before the test.
2. Eat a nutritious breakfast.
3. Drink water to stay properly hydrated.
4. Do the best you can.
5. Relax!

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
updates and current information.


Happy Easter Break!

Best Regards,
Mrs. Pelchy
