Valley Ranch Elementary
Club
Dear Parents,
We are excited to announce the start of the VRE Scrabble Club on Wednesday, September 7, 2016! This club will consist of 4th and 5th graders who love playing games and want to expand their vocabulary. Students will get a chance to compete with partners against classmates while learning spelling and math strategies. Students will also have an opportunity to compete against other Scrabble clubs in the area.
Scrabble meetings will be held on Wednesday afternoons from 3:00-3:45 in Mrs. Carmical’s room. Transportation will NOT be provided by the school and parents must arrive promptly at 4:00 to pick up students on the side of the school by the cafeteria. Students must have, and maintain passing grades and good conduct. Due to limited space, if students miss more than two consecutive meetings, their space may be forfeited to another student.
Students will need to bring a brad folder to be used for Scrabble to the first club meeting. This folder will hold handouts throughout the year as mini lessons on rules and strategies are taught. The folder will need to be brought to every meeting.
We will order Scrabble t-shirts to wear to school on Wednesday, and to the tournament to show our team spirit. Please use the attached form to order your child’s t-shirt. T-Shirts are $10 (cash only). All orders are due by September 21, 2016.
We look forward to an exciting year!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Carmical
