Welcome back!

Happy 2010!
We are getting back into our routines at school. Please welcome Ajamu, our new student who just moved to Oak Park from Idaho! We are happy to have a new friend in class.
A few reminders:
  • If you signed up for the Math-a-thon, you are welcome to send in forms and money raised, though it is not due until the end of the month. The workbook does not need to be returned.
  • December Book It! calendars can now be turned in for a personal pizza coupon. January calendars will go home tomorrow.
  • Don't forget to have gym shoes on Mondays and Fridays for P.E. and library books on Mondays for book check-out.
  • Please dress appropriately for the weather: coats, hats, gloves, boots. Snow pants are even better! Keep practicing tying (and untying) shoes as they go on and off more frequently now that boots are involved.
  • The cold season is upon us! We try to keep our hands washed, but also remember fresh fruits and vegetables are welcome as a snack to help boost the immune system. Water bottles are also welcome. Water only, please.
