Spelling words and a Few Reminders

Spelling words
Here are the new spelling words for this week: 

ou  (or) 
pour (for)
pourtant  (but, however)
pourquoi  (why)

Don't forget to review previous lists as well!

The Magic Flute
This is a reminder that field trip permission slips are due for our upcoming field trip to the St. Louis Symphony.  Please make sure to send yours back (along with $5 cash or check made out to SLLIS) so your child can come with us to the symphony on February 8.

Six Flags Read to Succeed
Keep up that reading!  Six Flags reading logs are due in early February.  Make sure you are keeping track of any books you read with your child, so that he/she can earn a free ticket to Six Flags this summer.  


Early to bed, early to rise...
With the winter cold and flu season here, please make sure your child is getting plenty of sleep to help keep his/her immune system strong.  Children ages 5 - 12 should get between 10 and 11 hours of sleep per night. http://www.parents.com/baby/sleep/basics/age-by-age-guide/     This is also a good time of the year to increase vigilance with hand-washing, particularly before meals.  Note:  If your child does have a fever, he/she must stay home until they are no longer running a fever (without medication) for at least 24 hours.
