| Learning to follow a beat and read music can be so much fun. |
Winter is finally here in full swing. I hope you can find a way to enjoy the fresh snow and also not lose your nose and cheeks to frostbite :). This week had a couple changes and different routines. We had two days off, a late start, glow party in music, and our last MAP test. These changes are exciting but also tiring for them. I am proud of their effort through the changes and their desire to learn and be at school.

| Sometimes you need to just practice playing together for the last 15 minutes of the day. |

3 - Mastered (above) - They have mastered the skill and can perform if asked.
2 - Proficient (on track) - They are growing in the skill and their learning is on track for 3rd grade.
1 - Progressing (growth needed) - They are struggling to preform the skill on their own and this skill is an area of growth.

Blanket Fort Celebration (RESCHEDULED):
On MON, Jan. 28, we are going to have some fun in the classroom. We are going to make a blanket fort in the classroom. I will provide the blankets and the students just need to bring a stuffed animal. (The stuffed animal must be able to fit in their backpack.)
100th Day of School:
Friday, Feb 1 will be our 100th day of school! WOW! We are looking forward to celebrating 100 days of God's faithfulness together. In celebration, we are encouraging the students to dress like they are 100 years old! (No wheelchairs or walkers, our classroom just isn't big enough!) Don't feel like you need to go and buy things....just get creative with this!
NOTE FROM MR. BRANDSEN:
This is a reminder to all parents and drivers to never park and leave your car in the curved drop off drive between 7:30 and 8:20 in the morning. The curved driveway is meant for drop off only at the curb. When cars park on the curb and the driver leaves, it becomes dangerous for others trying to drop their children off, some having to cross from the other side of the driveway. Again, Preschool through 6th grade, please do not park in the drive, but only stop along the curb long enough to drop off your students.
If you wish to get out of your car, please find a spot to park in our parking lot and accompany your students into school.Since Mr. Brandsen cannot be out there every morning to greet and monitor, I need to ask for and depend upon everyone honoring this request for the safety and protection of all of our precious students at Rose Park. Thank you for your cooperation.
Skating Party:
