I can’t believe that we have already completed the first month of 2017! Time does fly! We have a lot going on this week!
Change-a-Life Fundraiser- This week is the Change-a-Life fundraiser. Bring in your spare change (or even dollars) to support the Willard’s Children Charitable Foundation.
Valentine’s Party- We will be celebrating our Valentine’s Day party this Friday from 11:15-12:15. All students need to bring in $2 for Pizza. Also, do not forget to bring in your creative Valentine’s Day Boxes.
Half Day: Friday is a half day. Students are dismissed at 12:30
Willard App: Willard just developed our own app. Links to SIS, Aesop, Curriculum links, the HR Portal, district sports reports and more all in one place.

Spelling: Spelling tests have been great recently! Therefore, we are doing an “Extra Challenge” Spelling List this week. These are all February words (based off of Valentine’s Day, and President’s Day). Many of these words are longer so today we talked about how when writing you can chunk or divide big words. Your student came home with a list with how we learned how to divide these big words. Only February should be capitalized. I didn’t realize that it automatically capitalized most of the words. Don’t freak out on these. I honestly just want to see how they will do with the challenge.
Math: Our next math test will either be this Thursday or on Tuesday. We are going to see how they do with the review on Wednesday.
This Week:
Math- Solving one and two step story problems
Writing- Opinion Writing
Language-Verbs
Spelling- February Challenge List
Reading- Strategies
Social Studies- Technology and Communication
