4th Grade Living Museum

Hello parents!
Today your child started researching a famous Texan.  The famous Texan could be somebody that was born in Texas or an historical figure who is important to Texas history. Please ask your child who they are researching. Your child will receive 2 fuzzies if you email me by Thursday morning with the name of the Texan your child is researching. (I really am trying to find out how many parents actually are reading the blog!!) On Thursday, March 8th at 6:00 pm we are having our 4th grade Living Museum.  Your child will be dressing up as their famous Texan and bringing any helpful props as well.  For example, one 4th grader researched Lance Armstrong last year and came to the Living Museum dressed in bicycle riding gear and even brought her bicycle!  The students will be memorizing a few short facts about their person as well to recite.  So, mark your calendars for March 8th, and brainstorm with your child about a costume.
Also, in March will be our Rodeo Night.  On March 2nd, please join us for food, activities, an auction, and other fun events.  This event is taking place of our spring carnival.  Some information came home today in the Dolphin Folder.
Speaking of the Dolphin folder, PLEASE go through the folder each week.  Many students are coming back to school with all of their graded papers in the folder.  Parents should be going over the graded papers with the child.
Our Pennies for Patients money is due this Friday.  We are fortunate to have healthy children and it is always a great thing to help others.  So, please send in lots of spare change.  Please read the "hot pink" flyer that came home today.
We are almost finished reading our novel, Maniac Magee.  We will be making a project at the end of the book.  Each student will need to bring a piece of white poster board this week.
Have a marvelous week !!

This quote made me laugh because it describes me perfectly!   Anybody else....??  :))
