Upcoming 120th Day Celebration

Next Wednesday, March 2nd, we will celebrate the 120th day of school.  The students are invited to dress like a "rock star."  Please remember no face paint or hair paint is allowed.  At the bottom of the blog post I will post last years post from the 120th day.  This will give you ideas for how to dress your child for this fun celebration.  In your child's homework folder today, there is a sign up list for items that we will need for math on the 120th day.  If you are willing to donate an item, please circle the item you would be willing to donate and return the form by Thursday, February 25th.


We will also be celebrating Read Across America Day on March 2nd.  Your child is invited to bring in their favorite book to read.  We will be reading our favorite books with our Pre-K buddies in the afternoon.

We RoCkeD it to the 120th Day

Last Friday was the 120th day of school.  I can't even believe how fast this school year is going.  We celebrated the 120th day by dressing like RoCK sTArs.  The kids really rocked their outfits.  They were super cute!!!  We celebrated the day by writing 120 words, reading 120 books, skip counting by 5's to 120, sorting snacks into groups of 10 and then skip counting them to 120, and last but not least writing our numbers to 120.  The kids had a blast.  I so enjoyed celebrating their successes with them today.  Here are some pictures of our day.

















































Monday is Read Across America Day.  We will celebrate Dr. Suess' birthday by dressing in our pajamas.  In addition, I asked that everyone bring in their favorite children's book from home.  I will bringing my favorite book as well.  I can't wait to share our favorite books during our literacy rotations and write about our favorite books.  The kids will have the opportunity to read Dr. Suess books.  In addition, we will learn about the famous author during our shared reading.  Monday will be another fantabulous celebration.  I can hardly wait!!!!!
