Week of February 4th

February is a busy month with many extra activities taking place. Please check the "Upcoming Events" section of the blog to see what is happening over the next two weeks. We will be visiting the Scholastic Book Fair on Monday to browse and create our wish lists. On Thursday we will return to the book fair to purchase books, so please send your child with money on that day if you would like them to purchase books during school hours. Monday morning we will be going on a field trip to the Flynn Theater to see "Medicine Bear". We will return at around 11:15, just in time to go to recess and lunch. Tuesday is our 100th day of school! We are looking forward to a visit from "Zero the Hero" and have some fun 100th day activities planned for the morning & afternoon. Rumor has it that Zero the Hero is a parent of one of the Firefly First Grade students! I refuse to believe this...I can't think of any man in our school who owns a cape and tights! Perhaps I will be proven wrong... Wednesday we will be having our February Hands On Nature lesson. This lesson will focus on birds. As part of Fitness February we will be participating in a variety of activities which encourage a fit and healthy lifestyle. 

This week we had the opportunity to see Voyager's play. It was called "Wild and Wacky Weather". The students did an amazing job and our class loved watching them perform. We also got to see the Kindergarten dress rehearsal for their concert. What talented Kindergarteners we have. It was nice to see siblings and cousins from our classroom. Just a reminder to sign up for conferences if you haven't done so already.

Have a great week,
Nancy
