Week 25 Feb. 18-22

Team Urban,

This last 4 day week, our leader buddies from Mrs. Wassiff's class helped students decorate their boxes for their valentines.  Students also researched information about a lizard and created a habitat project to go with their lizard report.


































Student-Led Conferences:
The end of the second trimester and Spring Break are right around the corner. Please mark your calendars as February 28th is the last day to AR and the final day of the 2nd trimester. Since second-trimester conferences are optional for many, our class will be hosting Student-Led conferences on Tuesday, March 12th from 1:30-3:30. I will be making Monday and Wednesday, from 2-3:30, available for one-on-one conferences requested by myself or you. I will contact you shortly if I would like to have a one-to-one conference with you. If you would like to have a one-to-one conference with me, please email me by Friday, March 1st so I can plan accordingly.

Community Service Project:
Also, please remember that ILCS is a leadership school and service is something we value greatly. Your kiddo is required to complete a service project representing their completion of 8 hours of service throughout the year. The project will be due in early May. 

Valentine's Day:
Our class will be having a small Valentine's Day celebration on Thursday, February 14th from 12-1pm. Thank you to those families who have already contributed. Please know that your child does not have to distribute Valentine cards, but if they choose to, they must include everyone in the class. Thank you for helping our celebration be a success!
