***Have your parents read and sign the Family Life permission form.

Hello,
I want to once more thank all my parents who stoically braved a wet, cold day on the farm at UCSC last Friday. The kids all had a great time - in spite of the weather!
Family Life Education is coming soon! A parent information night is scheduled for next Tuesday, March 1, at 6:30 at Valencia School. I'm sorry for the last minute notice, but we just received the information this week. I will be sending home permission slips for your child to participate in this program tomorrow. The slips have detailed information regarding the program.
As we wind down to the end of the second trimester, our homework focuses on two projects: the colonial newspaper and the survival story. I've told my students they need to bring both to school each day in order to work on them.
A final note: I really appreciate how routinely the yellow half sheets come back to me signed each week. It's so important that you all are continually aware of your children's progress. Thank you for reviewing your child's work and signing the sheet!
Have a good rest of the week.

Mrs. Koue

Our field trip is still on for tomorrow. The kids will be under shelters for most of the activities, but please have them wear hooded jackets and rain boots if possible. Everyone needs to bring a lunch - the staff at the lab encourages lunch boxes, but bags are OK too.
Parent drivers, we will meet in the classroom at about 9 and leave at 9:15.

Thank you!

I forgot to mention yesterday that I asked anyone who was interested to complete an activity in the "Our Water Works" booklet I handed out last week. The assignment on pg. 12 asks your child to keep track of how much water he/she uses in one day (this can be a family total as well). This is not a required activity but will count as extra credit. We will share our results on Friday!
