WEEK 23


Valentine Mommies


WEEKLY RIDDLE
"What two things can you never have for breakfast?

Valentine's Day Quotes
"I don't understand why Cupid was chosen to represent Valentine's Day. When I think about romance, the last thing on my mind is a short, chubby toddler coming at me with a weapon." ~Author Unknown

"Must, bid the Morn awake!
Sad Winter now declines,
Each bird doth choose a mate;
This day's Saint Valentine's.
For that good bishop's sake
Get up and let us see
What beauty it shall be
That Fortune us assigns.
~Michael Drayton

"Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end." ~Author Unknown

Dear Parents,
This week we have a lot happening in Room 12. First, and foremost, I will be moving our Science Test to Wednesday so we can have one more night to study for our Unit of Study on the Water Cycle. On Tuesday we will be finishing our Power Point Presentation on our American Revolutionary Hero in the computer lab. In addition, in class, we will be preparing our Science Project Speeches using 3 by 5 cards. Students will present their projects after these are complete. Also, they will be able to enter their project in the Science Fair too! On Thursday we will be starting our new unit of study in Science on Weather. In reading we finished our book, My Brother Sam is Dead, so we will be going back to our Houghton Mifflin book and do a couple of short stories about the Revolution times.
On Wednesday we will have our big Valentine's Breakfast Bash for all of the 5th grade at 8am in the MPR.

See you at school!
Mr. Sweet
