Dear Parents,

Hard to believe we have one more full week left.  Your child was given a spelling list to study today, and there only homework for the week is to prepare for the spelling test on Thursday.  I left it up to them as far as how they want to prepare for it.  I will not be collecting any homework from them on Thursday.

A huge congrats to the three ladies who gave their wonderful ASB speeches today and their families. It takes guts to put yourself out there and take a risk, and all three of these ladies made it look easy.  We are all proud of them.

If your child is currently missing work, you received an email and I sent a printed out list of what they are missing in their Friday folders.

Please let me know if you need anything.

Have a great weekend!
Brad

Dear Parents,

I would like to start by saying what an incredible job your kids did on the field trip yesterday.  They should feel proud of the way they represented our community.  Thanks to all the parents who came along and spent the day with us. 

A couple of random things this week:

·         The students will be making collages in class next Thursday.  The collage will be about themselves/their lives/things they like.  They can put pictures, decorations, or anything else on there that can be glued to a piece of paper.  It’s a good idea not to send any irreplaceable pictures or items, as they will probably never be the same.  Ask your child what kinds of things they would like to put on theirs.

·         No school Friday, May 24^th or Monday, May 27^th.

·         10 out of 29 students turned in completed homework today.  With spring upon us, I need your help keeping the kids accountable.  Thank you!

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Have a great weekend!

Brad

MSP TESTING

What an amazing job your children did on the MSP this year.  Regardless of what the scores say, I know for a fact that each and every child worked incredibly hard and should be very proud of their effort.  Nicely done, 4^th graders!

FIELD TRIP

The field trip is coming up on Thursday, May 16^th.  Please fill out your child’s permission slip and send $5 to school with your child ASAP (please let me know if you need some assistance with the $5).   

WHERE IS MY CHILD’S FRIDAY FOLDER?

Mr. V was the principal designee today, so Friday folders were not sent home.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.  Many thanks!

Dear Parents,

In your child’s Friday folder you will find a permission slip for our upcoming field trip.  On May 16^th, from about 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., we will be headed downtown to visit Red Robin to hear about running a business, then we will go to the Mobius Science Center, and we will finish off at Riverfront Park.  The cost for the trip is $5.00.  If you need some help with this please let me know.  Chaperones are welcome.  Please let me know if you would like to join us. 

MSP next week is on Tuesday and Thursday.

The kids have been presenting their PowerPoints in class on their non-fiction books.  They have been super impressive!

An extra credit spelling list was sent home today.  There is no official homework this next week due to MSP.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Have a great weekend!
