February has arrived!

Dear Sixth Graders,
I read all of your postings about Obama's inauguration. Many of you watched it and will always remember his first day as U.S. president. It was also fun to read everyone's reaction to all the snow we had in January. Some people love snow and even go snowboarding. Others hate the snow and try to stay inside. I'm a snow fan myself, and often I go skiing on my way home from school. There is an awesome place to ski halfway between Watertown and Natick, which is lucky for me!
Today I'm asking you to write about two topics. First of all, it's progress report day. Please tell me whether you are meeting your goals in school. Are you satisfied with your progress and your grades? We still have several weeks until your second report card, and I would like to know what help you might need. The second topic is to tell me what you are looking forward to doing next week during winter vacation.
Finally, it's Valentine's Day, and I hope you all have a delightful day and a wonderful week off!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Powers
P.S. Your grade for blogging depends on whether you write a few sentences about each topic, and if you write correct sentences.

  2. dear Mrs.Powers,
    During vacation I am going to go shopping duh!!! I am hoping the pictures of my niece come i do not know how to spell her name. So far i know she has green eyes from her mother. I thought she would get brown eyes from her father who's my brother. Also because brown eyes are dominat.
    enough about her this is about me. so far i got my progress reports from science and world geography so far i got A and A on both classes but in science i got one point below what i got last time. i sure hope I get above a hundred. I am eager to see what i get in math because Mr.Wolfson told me i was improving so i am proud of what i got so far.
    sincerly,
    sahar

  6. Dear Ms.Powers,
    It's progress reports day and I'm excited to get my reports back. So far I am satisfied with my grades and I am confident that I will get A's and B's!Well, I know we have a couple of weeks left for my report card and I kind of need a little help in science! Even though I got a B in science, I still want to improve and get an A! When I see a big improvement on my grades, I will be the happiest person in the whole Universe!
    What I'm looking to do during our next winter vacation, is to have fun and to enjoy a long week with my best friends! I want more snow, so we could go snowboarding, sledding and skiing. I get really hyper and excited when it's vacation time. I'm looking forward to Valentine's Day with my family! I will give lots of hugs and kisses to my family! I wish you a Happy Valentine's Day, to you and your family, and a happy peaceful winter vacation!
    Sincerely,
    Franklin A.
