Red Ribbon Week
October 27th – 31st, 2014
This upcoming week, we will be celebrating
Drug Awareness week to show our commitment to be a drug free community. Each
day this week we will be doing different activities at school to show our pledge
to be drug free! J
If your child participates each of the 5 days, he or she will receive a coveted
SPIRIT STICK that says “Drugs are Despicable” to hang from their backpack! The
schedule follows…
Monday… We will sign a banner and pledge to
be drug free.
Tuesday… Discuss what things you could do
instead of doing drugs! (Discussing this at home would be a great thing too!)
Wednesday… We will commit to being drug free
and wear RED shirts. (Pictures will be taken this day!)
Thursday… STOMP OUT DRUGS by wearing
mis-matched shoes!
Friday…We will show our understanding that
drugs are used for cures by wearing PINK. (This will be when we take our annual
PINK OUT picture!)
News in the rooms…
We are still taking money and
forms for parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles to join our PTA! Please sign
up by sending the form and $8.50 with your child to school. The class with the
most participation gets a pizza party! J
This year we will continue to
focus Colleges. The more this is discussed the more it helps students develop a
plan for after high school. J
We are planning for your child’s future! We have already celebrated Career Day
this year and now one Tuesday a month, we will have a day to show our love for
our favorite college! The schedule is found here... on this link below!

HOMEWORK THIS WEEK…
Please be reading with your child
for 20-30 minutes nightly. If you would like to have additional comprehension
questions you can print them off in this PDF (there is also information about helping your kiddo with math too!)

Your child would also benefit from memorizing their
multiplication facts using flash cards. They can easily be found in Target,
Walmart, Dollar Store, etc. You could also make them at home. J This
memorization will not only benefit them now, but will stick with them
throughout their lives!
