Important Announcements:
*We had a BLAST today at
Track and Field! We worked hard and had
a lot of fun! Your children may be
slightly worn out tonight!
*Congratulations to these
students for qualifying for the pizza party with Miss Whisman for the reading
competition: Elijah, Lila, Faith, Caleb, Braeden, and Griffin! I am so proud of these students for reading
as much as they did during March and April!
Way to go! The pizza party will
take place on Tuesday, May 26th during lunch.
*Our schedule for the last
day of school is as follows:
9:00 – 9:45 Awards
Convocation (I would have contacted you if your child was receiving a special
award at this convocation.)
11:30 – Lunch
12:00 – Recess
2:00 – 2:30 Specials
2:30 – 3:15 Teacher Talent
Show (if the school earns it with our behavior tickets)
*On the last day of school I
will make time for students to sign yearbooks and track and field t-shirts or
Dog Jog t-shirts. IF YOU WANT YOUR CHILD
TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS, make sure he/she has his/her yearbook at school that
day and his/her t-shirt. It would be
helpful for your child to bring in a permanent marker as well.
*Your child will not have any
reading homework next week. He/she will
continue to have math homework. Our
final math test is on Wednesday, May 27th. After that, we will not have any
homework!
*Sometime next week I will
send home the summer reading challenge.
I encourage you to have your child participate in this! If your child returns the calendar next
school year, he/she will receive a special treat! I have attached a copy of the calendar to
this e-mail in case you need another copy.
*Continue to work on addition
and subtraction math facts over the summer!
Make sure to use those fact triangles that were sent home, or you can
practice for free online at www.xtramath.org.
*I believe in building relationships with the children both
inside my classroom and outside the classroom.
If your child participates in any extracurricular activities (sports,
dance, theater, etc.), or has any other events that he/she would like to invite
me to, please let me know, and I will do my best to come!
*The blog will also be updated with this information as well
so if you need to see it again visit http://misswhisman.blogspot.com
