The K5 classes are going to Stephen Fite's Superheroes Of Knowledge Concert at Davis Theatre in Montgomery on Monday, Feb. 3rd. The performance will begin at 10:00. We are invited to dress the theme of the show, so your child can wear a Superhero t-shirt of their choice if they would like or you can be creative if you'd like to make a Superhero shirt. Please do not allow additional costume props for your child to keep up with on the trip. Pike field trip shirts are fine too. Chaperons/drivers for this trip are: Pam Benton, Amanda Vaughan, Ashley Shirley, Michelle Marsh, and Bonnie Simmons. I will let you know closer to time when we will depart from school. Everyone has paid for the concert. As soon as we have made lunch arrangements, I will inform you. We are considering Chick-fil-a again. It worked out well and the children enjoyed it! Will let you know soon.
Please sign and return report cards by Friday, Jan. 17th.
Our 100th Day celebration is coming up Tuesday, Jan. 28th. This day is filled with fun counting activities! I will be sending some information home in folders later this week concerning our fun day. Please mark it on your calendar, so every one is prepared!
We are busy working on many skills! In reading, we are working hard to sound out words and read fluently. Continue to practice all sight words on the blog list. You can also practice sound out words to help build confidence in reading. In math, we are adding up to sums of 5 and will be moving on at a good pace. Practice: problems with 0 and 1 rule and 2+2=4, 2+3=5. Look over daily work and reinforce skills at home if your child is having difficulty. The last part of the year is crucial in building confidence in math and reading so your child can be successful working independently in first grade. Remember, practice makes perfect!!!
The canned food drive will end Friday, so we only have a few days to get those cans in!
Monday, January 20th is a school holiday. Enjoy the long weekend :)

Our field trip to see Goodnight Moon is Friday, Jan. 10th. Please have children to school on time. We will leave as soon as roll is checked. A note with all details was sent home the first of the week.
Some children are still in need of new crayons and glue sticks as soon as possible.
The SGA school canned good drive will end next week. We are only 200 cans short of making our school's goal. Your participation is appreciated!!
Deer Hunt money ($10.00 per family) is due this week. This is our largest fund raiser for our school. The money is used to supply food for the hunters. All proceeds made with this fundraiser goes to technology for the school.
Report cards will be sent home in folders today. Please discuss with your child, sign, and return in the blue envelope by next Friday. Be sure to look at upcoming skills for the next nine weeks, so you can reinforce these at home. I am pleased with our progress! We are all working on good classroom habits such as good listening skills, raising our hand before speaking, working neatly consistently, following classroom rules in general. Please talk with your child about the importance of developing good habits in order to be successful in school. Look over areas that need improvement on the report card and discuss these as well.
Your help at home is always appreciated! If you have questions or concerns, please email me or send a note and I will be glad to set up a conference time with you. Thank you!

No School on Tuesday, January 7th
The latest update from the National Weather Service and EMA gives us dropping temperatures through Tuesday, with wind chill in the single digit to below zero temperatures. With that in mind school will be cancelled on Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2014. Plans are to resume Wednesday at normal time. If there is question or concern for Wednesday, check the school website, my blog and EMA announcements.
