CLASSROOM AUCTION:
Thank you to everyone who donated items. Between that and all the things I purchased, we were able to be sure everyone received something from the auction. It was a fun experience for the kids. I truly appreciated their thoughtfulness in not outbidding others on more than 2 items so everyone could have something. This is such a wonderful group of kids!
DUNES FIELD TRIP:
We will see you at school by 8:30 if you are joining us. We are
taking one bus and as mentioned before you can carpool to the Dunes,
etc. I accidentally left off some parents from Mrs. Maxson's class that
will be going along.
You will be given
directions to get to the Dunes rides, from there to the hike (we start
out by the parking lot near the Felt Mansion), and directions from there
to Shultz Park.
Lunch- we will let the kids go through first and then parents. You are welcome to bring your own lunch of course.
*LAST BLAST- Friday, June 6th 8:45-11:00 PTO and parent WISH volunteers will be coordinating this event. Unlike past years, this will not be open to spectators dropping in.
LAST DAY - 4TH AND 5TH GRADE TUNNEL:
Traditionally our 5th grade students have walked through a tunnel formed by K-4th graders to celebrate their years in elementary school and their move on to the middle school. This year 4th grade will join them. Parents, etc may begin lining up for "The Tunnel" at 11:20.
If you are driving your child home, please wait for buses to leave before going to your car for all students' safety.
* IF YOU WILL TAKE YOUR CHILD HOME INSTEAD OF THEM GOING ON THE BUS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW BY THURSDAY JUNE 5TH.
- This is a very busy day, we won't be in the classrooms very much, and I may not get a late message!!
MATH:
We took the The Measurement Unit Test on Thursday-these will come home Wednesday as I have time to go through them with kids. We will review fraction, decimal and measurement concepts this week.
READING -
We will continue reading some non-fiction articles and reading in their own books this week.
WRITING:
We are making designing our own Superheroes and creating brochures to promote them. We watched a short Lego Superhero clip to start us off, discussed superpowers, and compared and contrasted superheroes. Students began pre-writing and designing. This week we will talk about values superheroes have and promote and read about everyday heroes.
SCIENCE: Everyone presented their
Project-based Learning activity
that focused on the behavioral and physical adaptation of the animal they designed. Students have a science study guide and we have gone over this. They are supposed to be studying for this. We will study in class more as well.
The Science Systems Unit Test is Wednesday June 4th.
