LOVE IS IN THE AIR...

FABULOUS FOURTH GRADE'S VALENTINE BREAKFAST...

Dear Students and Parents,
     The 4th grade students are looking forward to celebrating Valentine's Day on Monday, February 14, 2011 in the 4th grade classroom. We will celebrate by having our "party"first thing in the morning with a fourth grade breakfast. I have purchased the paper supplies and we will have breakfast in the classroom. Donated items should be on/in disposable plates or tins and ready to eat. We won't be cooking in the classroom, but instead make or prepare our breakfast foods at home and drop them off first thing Monday morning at 7:50 AM (Five minutes before school starts). Please feel free to follow the list below suggested by the fabulous fourth grade students or bring a nutritious addition appropriate for early morning eating.
     Students can write Valentine Cards and sign each card before class, to be part of the Valentine card exchange. PLEASE DO NOT WRITE NAMES ON CARDS, but only sign your name at the end of the Valentine message. We completed Valentine Bags during our art lesson on Thursday to use for this traditional exchange. We have 19 students in fabulous fourth grade. Since we have been studying fractions: 7/19 of the class are boys and the rest are girls. Ask your fourth grade students to tell you what fraction of the remaining students are girls. (They should be able to tell you accurately since they have proved to be brilliant with fractions in class.)
     The following students VOLUNTEERED to bring the following items to school on Monday for our breakfast:
Bailey- Syrup & Belgian Waffles
Priscilla- 2 gallons of Orange Juice
Ariana- Three gallons of non-fat milk
Isabelle- Boxed individual Cereal
Andrea- Bagels and Cream Cheese
Lanie- Bacon & Bacon "Dates" since it is Valentine's Day
Sean- Costco Blueberry Muffins
Katelyn- A sliced fruit tray
Alycia- English Muffins with Peanut Butter

The Fabulous Fourth Grade students came up with all of these wonderful ideas! Whatever we end up having will be fabulous!
Contact me through my email address if you have any questions or suggestions.
Happy Valentine's Day,
Mrs.Schemenauer
