             GOD'S BLESSINGS
            
  Welcome to our Room 204 Family, where "we all fit together"! Our theme for this year is "God Has Chosen Me To Be... "
  
  CHARITABLE.
  
  I want to thank to all of you for your prayers and many donations for our Christmas Service Project: The Turning
  Point, a shelter for those women and children affected by domestic violence.  I'm sure you are making many people's lives a little happier!
  
  Two New Activities Starting in January
  
  Beginning January 7, students will start a monthly reading log (reading 300 pages per month), and a Weekly Explorer Question (finding places on a map).  The Explorer Question is assigned on Monday, and is due on Friday of that week.  A letter describing both activities was sent home on Monday, Jan. 7.  Please contact me with any questions.
  
  
  Routines and Reminders:
  
  As the weather changes, students will start wearing (I hope!) coats, jackets, sweatshirts, and a little later on, gloves, hats, mittens and boots.  Please make sure your child's clothing and extras are labeled.  Also, please check to see if you have "acquired" new items.  A few of the students are missing their "Charger wear" school sweatshirt.
  
  Room 204 is doing a good job of writing in  the Homework Notebook and taking home/returning the homework.  Please remember to look the homework over and sign the notebook.  The students look forward to getting a stamp if the notebook is signed.
  
  Again, I appreciate all of your support with teaching your  children responsibility.  Believe me, it will be easier later on if they learn these life lessons now!
  
  Have a good week!
