Hi Everyone! I hope you enjoyed your weekend. It was fun having you in class last Friday for the "Walking Report Card." I am so proud of all of my students. They have made excellent progress so far and I am glad you were able to see that last Friday. I will be busy this week getting ready for our SEP conferences on March 3rd and March 4th. If you have not signed up yet, please do so in the next few days. The deadline is Feb. 24th. Please let me know if you need help signing up. Our spelling test this week will be on Thursday because there is no school on Friday for students. It is an EBL Day and teachers will be getting ready for conferences on that day. Have a great week!

I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day and you enjoyed the long weekend. We had such a fun time at our class party last Friday. I want to thank our head room parent, Jamie Brough, for planning it for us. I would also like to thank all of the parent volunteers who came to help or send supplies for the party. We will be celebrating our 100th Day of school on Tuesday. Can you believe it? This year is flying by! We have some fun activities planned for this special day. Be sure to ask your child all about it. I am looking forward to seeing you at our "Walking Report Card" this Friday (Feb. 19th) at 8:55. It should last about 1-1 1/2 hours and you can take home your child when you are done since it is short day. Please remember that each student can only have one parent in attendance due to the size of our classroom. If you have any questions, please feel free to call. There will be no spelling words this week due to the short week. Please look for the notes coming home about conferences that will be held in March. I am excited to meet with you and celebrate your child's success. Have a great week!

It's Valentine's Week in Mrs. Rigby's Class. We will be doing some fun activities in math in honor of Valentine's Day. Please remember that our 100th Day of School homework is due on Wed. Feb. 10th. We will be celebrating our 100th Day on Tues. Feb. 16th. We will be participating in the Jump For Heart activity on Thurs., Feb. 11th. I know that jump roping can be a hard skill for kindergartners. I will be there to help and encourage the children on. We are not looking to see who can jump and who can't, we are doing it for fun. Even if your child doesn't know how to jump they can still participate and I will be there to teach them. What a great way to learn to jump rope! Friday is our _ig spelling test. It will be right before our class party. Students may bring in there Valentine's on Thursday or Friday. There are 23 students in our class. Please make sure your child has a valentine for everyone. Write who it is from and leave who it is to blank. It makes it so much easier to pass them out. Have a great Pres. Day weekend!

Happy Groundhog Day! February is off to a great start. Writer's Workshop continues to be going well. I love how the students are expressing their ideas through writing. I will share your child's journal with you next month at SEP Conferences. I will be sending home two very important letters on Wednesday. Please check your child's backpack for them. One of the notes is about a 100th Day of School activity that we have asked your student to do at home and return to school. The other note is about Walking Report Card which will be held on Friday, February 19th. This note needs to be signed and returned by February 12th. I have listed below a calendar of events that will be happening in our classroom this month. Please call or email with any questions you may have. I LOVE teaching your children! Have a great week!
