I hope you all enjoyed some quality time with your families
during these past two snow days.
Read at Home Books
A couple of parents have asked me about the RAH books that
went home this past Monday. My plan is
to sign books out every Monday so please have your child return his/her book on
Fridays. Please remember if you think
the book is too easy for your child . . . It is appropriate for children to
read books at an easy, or independent (without support) level to build fluency,
sight word recognition and confidence in their ability to read. Instruction in more challenging books will
come for working in the classroom during guided reading time.
Patriot’s Spirit
Day
This Friday will be Patriot’s Spirit Day. Have your child wear Patriot’s gear or red,
white, and blue to support the Patriots as they take on the Seahawks during the
Super Bowl on Sunday.
Special Person of
the Week
We have started Special Person of the Week. When your child is selected to be Special
Person they will be given a magazine to fill out over the weekend. Names are pulled randomly for a hat, so
please let me know if there is a particular weekend that would not be good for
your child to work on his or her special magazine. Jimmy, Nicholas and Seamus have done a
wonderful job sharing their magazines with the class.
Valentine’s Day
On Friday, February 13th we will be having our
Valentine’s Day party. Please have your
child make out a valentine for every child in the class. There are 20 children in the class. In light of the many allergy and food related
concerns that exist at Memorial School, we are requesting that NO FOOD be sent in with Valentine
cards. Thank you very much for your
cooperation. Below is a class list.

Medfield High
School Student
Starting next week, we will be having a student from
Medfield High School assisting in our classroom a few days a week. Kyra Kramer, who is a senior, will be
attending Muhlenberg College in Pennsylvania in the fall and will be majoring
in Early Elementary Education. We are
very excited to have her. I know she is
looking forward to working with the children.
Donations
If you would be interested in making a donation to the class,
we are currently in need of glue sticks, hand sanitizer and paper towels. Any donation would be greatly
appreciated.
As always, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me at pgrace@email.medfield.net if you
have any questions or concerns.
