Books for the Classroom

Dear parents,

 

Three things:

 

1.       There are two tests this week – one on plurals and one on verb conjugation.

2.       The Free Read project is due Friday, Jan. 7.  I encourage all students to have it done by this Friday so that it does not hang over their head over Christmas break.

3.       Recently I asked you for help and many of you responded.  Thank you!  Because of this, I will now have 20 new books for my classroom.  This was so successful, that I thought I would try once more in the Yahoo for Homepages contest.  This time we are going for 11 graphic novels.  The more high interest materials I have in my classroom, the more our students will develop better reading skills.  This will cost you NO MONEY – only two minutes of your time.  I did this a few weeks ago and have gotten no spam or e-mails except one follow up e-mail thanking me for supporting a project in Donors Choose.    You can do this as many times as you have an e-mail and it must be done by FRIDAY.  If all of us did it once, it would help tremendously.  If we all did it two or three times, we’d win again.

 

All you need to do:

Go to http://www.yahoo.homepagesforhomerooms.com/

Click FIND A PROJECT TO SUPPORT.

Click PROJECT ID (this is found in the middle of the page)

Enter 484817 into the project id box

Click Support This Project.

In the new window, look at the first thing – Change Your Homepage to Yahoo – click the link that says click here

Then choose the last option – Add this webpage to your home page tabs

Enter your e-mail address twice, click the box, and enter the security words.

 

That’s it! Total time – 2 minutes.  Thanks!


If you don’t want it there anymore, just click TOOLS on your internet browser, scroll to the bottom of the menu and choose INTERNET OPTIONS.  There you can just delete the Yahoo.com on your homepages.  Easy!

 

If you really like me, you can do it again and again for every e-mail you have (just refresh the screen) and you could pass this along to all of your friends and family.
