I wanted to post a few pieces of information and will list them below to make it easier to refer to, if you need to revisit.
- Freedom Train Field Trip-- We are going to watch the play, "Freedom Train", on Thursday, January 26th, at Clowes Hall at Butler University. Permission slips were sent home on Monday. The cost is $8.00 per child. We will be back to Webb by lunchtime, so sack lunches will not be necessary. Permission slips and money are due by Friday, January 20th. Please send those in asap. To prepare for this field trip, we've been learning about Harriet Tubman and other abolitionists that had a major impact in the fight against slavery.
- The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe Field Trip-- On Wednesday, February 15th, we will be attending the play, "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe", at Franklin Community High School. There is no charge for this play and permission forms are not needed. Again, we will be back to Webb by lunchtime and do not need to pack sack lunches.
- Report Cards-- Report cards were sent home yesterday (Thursday, January 12th) and were placed in your child's data binder, along with updated NWEA test scores and goal pages. We are working on setting goals with your kiddos here at school, but would love for you to discuss those goals (and add some, if need be) at home.
- Vocabulary-- I am sending home a new list today. I will attach a snapshot of the words below, but your child is also bringing home their list, with definitions and examples, today. The test will on January 27th. I am also challenging students to learn how to accurately spell 150 "no excuses" words that they should know how to spell fluently by 4th grade. That list has been in their yellow folder since Monday and will stay in there until they pass, with 100% accuracy, all 150 words.
