Important Announcements:
*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!
*Our zoo field trip will be
on Tuesday, May 19th. We will
leave school at 9:00 a.m. and return by 2:00 p.m. If your child did not purchase a sack lunch
from the cafeteria, he/she will need to bring one from home. All students will need to wear their dog jog
t-shirts. They are the neon yellow ones
with a purple paw print on the front. I
am looking forward to a great trip!
*We will be taking our last
SRI of the year on Wednesday, May 20th. I will send home a report with your child’s
final score after the test! I am excited
to see how much they have grown!
*Your child will not have any
reading homework this week or next week.
He/she will continue to have math homework.
*Track and Field is scheduled
for Friday, May 22nd. Your
child will be given a t-shirt to wear that was provided by the PTSG. Your child will also need to bring a water
bottle that he/she can use throughout the day.
There will be NO recess and NO specials the day of Track and Field.
Our Schedule for Track and
Field:
Fun Day: 9:00 – 9:50
Field Day: 9:55 – 10:45
Lunch: 11:30 – 12:00
Game Day: 12:30 – 1:20

*Continue to work on addition
and subtraction math facts. 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!
