I hope that everyone had an enjoyable and safe long weekend! It was nice to have decent weather and be able to get out for a bit. We are in for the home stretch now and need extra patience to get through. I know it's a busy time of year for everyone but it really helps if your child is getting plenty of sleep. I know that I'm trying to for myself!
Wednesday and Thursday- I will be out for training both of these days. I let the kids know ahead of time and we talked about challenges of having a guest teacher this time of year. Please remind your child of appropriate behavior. It will be helpful to check in with your child on Wednesday to find out how things are going.
Field Day! This Friday, May 31, if Field Day! Please send your child with appropriate clothes, shoes, refillable water bottle, and sun screen for the day. Students should not share sun screen due to possible allergies.
Math - We are reviewing much of what we have worked on throughout the year as well as finishing the Unit 8. If your child does not have homework, he or she should work on anything that they did not feel secure on. Khan Academy is a great resource for explanations and practice of math work.
Research reports - Students should be wrapping up their interest research reports. This was done all in school. The students are doing these in Google Docs so if you are interested, you could have them open it at home and share it with you.
Baby pictures - Thank you for everyone who has sent in baby pictures already. They are so adorable!! Please email me the baby/toddler picture as a .jpg. You can also send in an actual picture that I can scan and send back the same day.
Field trips - Thank you to all of you!! I have every field trip form signed and turned in! That was fast and great work. If you have not sent in the $6 for Buhr Pool, please do so soon. If you are unable to do this, please contact me privately or send in a note with your child. All student costs will be covered. Also, if your child will need a cold lunch from school on either June 10 or June 11 due to the field trips, the lunch lady needs to know by Friday, May 31.
