Thank YOU :)

Teacher appreciation week was awesome and I have you and the PTA to thank for it!!  THANK YOU SO MUCH for the gifts – your thoughtfulness, your donation, and your time given were not overlooked.  The bulletin board, the flowers, and the many perfect gifts given on Tuesday were amazing.  I am so thankful to each of you for taking the time out of your very busy schedule to think of me!!!  You guys ROCK!

Howell Nature Center

We really enjoyed our time at the Howell Nature Center 🙂  Thanks so much to all of our parents who went along with us!!  Here are a few pictures of our day.  If you took pictures and want to send them to me, I will add them to this post.

 

Updates…

  • Math homework is coming home today. We are starting a new topic, money!  We learned the strategy of touch points today to help us count coins.  Here is a video explaining how it works.
  • A waiver must be filled out for students and adults that are going on the field trip next week. They will be sent home tomorrow. Please fill out and return if your child is going to the Howell Nature Center. Click here for another copy.
  • Curriculum night is this Thursday!

 

Field Trip

We just found out that the nature center needs to know how many students will be attending by Monday at the latest, so if you have not yet turned in the permission slip, please do so by Monday, April 29th.

Thank you! 🙂

This Week:

  • Math homework due Wednesday
  • Field trip permission slip came home today.  Please return by Wednesday, May 1st.
  • PLEASE check your child’s planner daily for reminders and homework.  Reading group homework is not an option.  MANY students are not completing their homework for reading groups and it holds the rest of the group up when we have to wait for someone.  It is also helpful if you get them started, or at least look at it when they are done to make sure they followed directions.

FROM THE PTA:

Tuesday April 23: Fundraiser at Famous Hamburger; please see  the flyer.

Wednesday April 24:  -Please turn in your RSVP for Friday’s Spring Spectacular.

– PTA Meeting at 2:45 in the cafeteria

Friday April 26: Spring Spectacular 5:00-7:00 PM, $5 per person
