Don't for get to "Brown Bag It!"

Today was another awesome day.  :)  We were slightly chatty but no big deal really. 

Remember your healthy snack and to wear deodorant!!  We are switching our schedule around some, nothing is finalized yet, but when it is I will post our schedule. 

Thank you everyone who joined the facebook page!  We now have a direct link to it.  http://www.facebook.com/mrswadkinsclass

Homework for tonight:
Brown Bag it! 
Students were provided with a brown paper bag today.  They are supposed to fill it with an item from each of the following categories.  They will share it with the class through out this week.  I told them to try and get something from each category, but at the very least 8 categories.

CATEGORIES
* a hobby or free-time activity that you enjoy
* one of your favorites (food, color, music, book, etc.)
*future plans or goals
*something you'd like to do better
*a place you'd like to visit
*something special about your family
*the best part of summer vacation
*something that reminds you of a memorable event or time in your life
*something that you really dislike
*a talent or special ability that you have



A flyer went home with the girls today about cheer camp.  OHS Cheerleading Clinic is Saturday, August, 27th.  9am-10:30am.  Ages 4 through 5th grade.  Registration starts at 8:45.  Cost for the clinic is $10 and for an additional $10 you can get a T-Shirt.

Tomorrow a flyer will go home about the 2nd annual cupcakes for kids event.  Support Communities in School and the Back Snack Program!  Purchase a cupcake from Ottawa Country Mart on August 26th and 27th and proceeds will go to help students in need in the Ottawa School District.

Our behavior system is a system of tallies.  Students will get a tally anytime they are blurting, off task, disrespectful (both to adults and peers), messing around in the hallways, etc. 

Tally 1 is a warning
Tally 2 is a warning
Tally 3 lose 10 mins of recess
Tally 4 lose entire recess
Tally 5 a note goes home
Tally 6 is a visit to the Principal Mrs. Wormington

In order for our class to earn a party they have to earn 600 points.  At the end of the day any student that does not have a tally earns the class 1 point.  Students can also earn party points by obtaining compliments from adults and for doing well in class and line.

If a child has a 4+ tally day they get 1 strike.  If a student ends up with 3+ strikes they do not get to participate in the class party.  Parties will be determined when they are earned. 

Thank you for your continued support and I look forward to an amazing year!
