Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

Exhibitions – I was very impressed by the effort that the students put into their projects. I could see a tremendous amount of growth in each one of the students. I can’t wait to see their final exhibitions.

Field Trip – We will be going on a field trip on Friday, April 1st. We will be attending a play about Anne Frank. The cost of the field trip is $5.

Music – Ms. Ritter will be placing the order for recorders on April 1st. If you are planning on purchasing a recorder at that time, please have the money turned in to me by no later than Thursday, March 31st. The cost of the recorder is $5.

Newbery Reading Project – We have started our Newbery project. This project is a great way for students to get involved in reading. All of the students have selected their books. Most of the students selected books that I do not have in our library, so it is important for students to check the books out of the library. More information will be going home with your child as the project progresses.

Interest Project Ideas- All students have chosen and interest project idea either at their learning team meeting or at a meeting with me. Their interest project idea is listed on their learning team form.

Snack Time – Please make sure that if you are sending your child with a snack that it is a healthy simple snack. Snacks that involve utensils and/or peeling take too much time to eat. We have a working snack time and if your child is peeling their fruit, they are not focusing on the lesson. Thank you for your cooperation.

I am looking forward to an outstanding final trimester with all of the kids! This trimester promises to be a busy one.
