Mrs. Fox has started her “Minute to Win it” typing
challenge. The top three students in each grade who type the most words
in a minute will win a prize. The winners will be revealed next
week. If you’d like to test your own skills, please go to http://www.typingtest.com/
Mrs. Farrell's fourth grade class investigated static
electricity this week. Students had the chance to create a static discharge.
Mrs. Hall’s students were busy conquering the task of
interpreting remainders in division. The students went on a scavenger hunt around
the classroom. They solved multi-step division problems using the partial
quotient method.
The counseling department is working with students to
create gratitude journals. As part of this exercise, students write down what
they’re grateful for in their lives and discuss the benefits of cultivating an
“attitude of gratitude.” This activity comes from a recent Wall Street Journal article. You can access the article by clicking here.
Spirit Day Update - Food Pantry Donations
Thank you to all who contributed non-perishable items as part of our first Spirit Day back in November. We received a thank you note from the food pantry gratefully accepting the 1,292 1/2 pounds of food that were donated from the Wrentham Public Schools. This latest drive raised the number of pounds of food donated by students and families over the past year to 3,280 lbs. Wow!!!
Let’s show our pride as we cheer on all of our athletes as they compete in the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia!
On Thursday, February 6, wear your favorite patriotic gear….wear red, white and blue….show your PRIDE!
GO Team USA!!!
The ski club was back at it on Thursday night!

Sincerely,
Stephen S. Grenham, Principal
