Information about the Penny Drive

Just a reminder that the Penny Drive starts this coming Monday and runs for 2 weeks, the last day to bring coins is December 14.  American currency only please.  Any coin is okay because we go by weight, the winning class wins a prize.  Student leadership has decided to split the monies collected between our local soup kitchen and a school that was affected by Hurricane Sandy.

The Salvation Army has put me in touch with the Drum Point Elementary School  in Brick, NJ.  It is a school that was hard hit by the hurricane.  Their enrollment is  a little over 500 students. Let's show them what a state in the Midwest can do to help others!

Dear Parents,

For the next week and a half, we will be studying the planets in our Solar System.  Students will be working in pairs to research information about the planets by looking up information in books and on the Internet.  I will give the students time to work on this in class, but I am also encouraging students to work on this at home.  Students may present their planets by using pictures and written or typed information displayed on a poster board or in a book that is created by the students.  Students will be presenting their research on Wednesday, November 21^st beginning at 9:30 AM.
