Science Fair Registration and Valentines

Yesterday students should have brought home a sheet for you to help them register for the science fair (it is required for 4th and 5th, but registration lets the coordinators know the exact number of participants for set up purposes).  In order to do that, please go to http://www.eyesforward.com/fair/ by February 28th.  All participants will receive a certificate of participation and the top three projects in each grade will receive an award.  Students should have their topics chosen at this point and over the long weekend, their job is to explore their background information, find websites or books that may be useful for the project, and get any background information needed by Monday.  Students will be forming their hypothesis by next week so it's important this is done on time to keep up with our schedule.  Thanks for helping at home!

Today students will be coming home with a handout of student names in case you are interested in sending Valentines on February 14th.  As many of you have realized, February 14th is an early release day with students leaving at 12:35.  Due to the early release, we will not be having a Valentines "party" but students will have time to distribute and exchange Valentines.  I do ask that if you're sending Valentines into class, that you send one for EVERY child in the class.  Thank you for your support!

Well it's a long weekend - three relaxing days ahead so make the most of them and hopefully we can enjoy some of the (predicted) nice weather!  See you Monday!
