Dear Families,
Welcome back to school!  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!  We had a great Christmas!   Keelie loved opening all of her presents!  I think that was her favorite part...ripping up the paper and not getting in trouble for it! 
Spelling Words
there, best, fast, just, hand, must, out came, sent, next
Challenge word: know
We are learning about contractions, penguins, shapes, and writing numbers.   Next week we will be learning about equal parts (fractions), adjectives, contractions, and thinking about what we are reading (questioning).  

We have several January birthdays to celebrate!  Happy Birthday to...
Bekka, Keiffer, Kenzie, & Cam! 

Dates to remember:
No School on
January 18th!


Have a great weekend!
Nicci Rosted


I am sending home an offer from Highlights magazine for Puzzlemania magazine.  I looked it over, and it's actually pretty good.  It's educational & would be great for those times when your child says "I'm bored".  I'm keeping one in the classroom if you want to look it over before deciding.  Either way, please return the slip so we can earn some free classroom gifts! Also, I am sending home Jan. book orders today. There are some great books in there including a Skippyjon Jones pack! Please turn these in by
Jan. 14th.
Wish List
