Home Links A new Home Link packet come home today. It is due on March 16^th.. This is required homework for your child. Along with this, continue to practice addition/subtraction facts up to 20, adding/subtracting two digit numbers, telling time, and counting money. These skills need to be automatic to your child before going to 3^rd grade next year.

Report Cards Report cards will be sent home March 20^th. We won’t have conferences

Conferences until after April 16^th so feel free to contact me with any questions. I will be setting up conferences with those I need to see right after Spring Break.

Book It Book It forms and Family Challenge forms are due back on March 20^th. Please be sure to put your child’s name on it so he/she can get credit for completing it. Since March is Reading Month the form looks different. Our school wide theme is Pioneers, so we will be doing some activities related to that throughout the month. Please check the calendar so your child doesn’t miss out on the fun! In the packet is a calendar and a Family Word Search Challenge to complete for extra prize opportunities. You can pick up more fish in the library after filling your first five. Make sure everything is back to school by March 20^th so your child doesn’t miss out on the opportunity to win prizes. Also, if everyone completes their Book It this month I will buy pizza for the class!

ELY I have spoken with many of you about the Extended Learning Year as an option for your child. This is a great opportunity for our students. If you still have questions or would like to discuss it more, feel free to contact me. The last day for applications will be Friday, March 13^th.

Snacks Please check the monthly calendar to see when your child’s snack is. I know that often times the children don’t give you much notice so feel free to send in your child’s snack early so it will already be here. J

Thanks,

Cheryl Hatfield
