PJammin - Next Friday, February 22nd


 
On February 22nd, We have signed up to participate in a program called PJammin.  As a Westwood Community, we are going to recognize the thousands of children that suffer from childhood cancer and spend months and months in the hospital.  These children miss out on going to school, being with their friends and spend months on end in a hospital bed in their Pajamas.
     We'd like to have each child at Westwood Elementary to wear their pajamas to school on February 22nd as a symbolic way of reflecting on the amount of time children with cancer must wear their PJs.  We would also like to strive to raise money for the American Childhood Cancer Organization.  Each child that wears his/her PJs is asked to donate at least $1 for the organization, and they will receive a temporary tattoo to wear with their Pjs that day.
     The 4th grade at Westwood is sponsoring this event by helping to raise awareness among the school community.  4th grade students have made posters and collection boxes for funds, they have also traveled to other classrooms to notify the students and and motivate them to participate in this event.
     We are hoping this experience raises awareness about childhood cancer, helps to raise money for the foundation and brings an enriching experience to our student community.  When we bond together we truly make a difference!

Valentine's Day

Next week, on February 13th we will celebrate Valentine's Day in our classroom.  We decided as a class to eliminate bringing in food and snacks and to have fun while keeping it simple.

We will of course pass out Valentines.  If you would like to pass out Valentines, please be sure to make a Valentine for each member of our classroom.  (A list will go out this week)  No special gifts should be given.  Students should bring in a box or container to hold Valentines.

 If you would like to make a special box, we will be having a contest for the boxes brought in that day.  There are three categories you can try to win for:
1.  Most Original Valentine Box
2.  Funniest Valentine Box
3.  Most beautiful Valentine Box
We will vote as a classroom on the best box for the above categories.  You may only enter your box into one category.

Upon completion of the Valentine Box Competition, we will be play board games that we bring in from home.
Looking forward to a fun afternoon on February 13th!
Mrs. Wagner and Class  :)
