Dear students,

What a surprise it was for me to be out of school this week. My baby was trying to make her appearance a little early, but luckily everything is ok. I had to spend a few days in the hospital for the doctors to check everything and make sure that little Julia and I were both safe and that she was not going to be born too early.

Now I am at home on something called "bed rest." That means I need to stay off my feet and rest. It does not mean I have to stay in bed the whole time. I can also sit on the couch and rest there,  which is a good thing because the TV is downstairs. :)

I am so sad that I'm missing this fun and crazy week! I heard Traditions Night went well and that you all did such a great job during practice. Mrs. Rice also told me that your buddies LOVED their elf letters. Did they feel cold? Were they surprised?

Thank you for being so well behaved for Mrs. Berry and Ms. Reed. They came in to sub for me without any preparation or warning, so they had to do their best with what little I already had prepared!

Enjoy your two weeks off for Winter Break! Rest and have fun. Ms. Reed will pass out my present for you; I hope you enjoy it.

I miss you!

Baking christmas cookies was a fun tradition and I will also say that I am very proud that we are going to have a tradition program next week.

If you are a gymnast and love to read, than I know a good book for you! It is called “Gold Medal Summer”. The author is Donna Freitas. I feel the book is very exciting, because gymnastics is an exciting sport. I hope if you read this book you’ll like it. I sure did. The book makes you want to keep on reading.

At school the colony is having some problems. William White (Kavi, the mayor) made a speech, he asked how everyone is doing on the pounds and stamps, most people were low on pounds and asked if we could get more pounds. But it just got worst, each tax now cost 2 stamps. But a miracle came, money came to us for how good me made our colonial diaries.
That’s the Blog for this week.

Way to go class, we did it! We won the golden tray for good behavior in the lunch room last week. Did you see our photo on the wall? Here are a few new things to be on the look out for in the cafeteria:

1) Classes who have won the golden tray or dustpan will be dismissed earlier from the cafeteria in the mornings.

2) The display in the cafeteria will keep track of how many times classes win the rewards. (Let's win the most times!)

3) Green stars or cards will be awarded to classes for good behavior.

4) Red cards will be given to students showing poor behavior (ex. throwing food, being too loud, etc) and those students will need to sit at the red table for lunch that day.

I am so proud of how your cafeteria behavior was last week. Let's work hard to win it again this week and to continue behaving the right way in the cafeteria! 

Thank you!
Mrs. Sheffels

This week during social studies we learned about the French and Indian war. Also we got our first pounds. Pounds are the money that people use in England. We started our informative pretest in writing. This week we won the golden try for our class.The golden tray is if your class is the most quiet for the week.
