HAPPY LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!!

Here is our last day schedule:

11-1: I will be at Lindbergh waving goodbye to 5th grade as they pick up their promotion bags.

3:00- We will have our virtual class end of year party!!
– It will be on Big Blue Button
– I am hoping everyone can join!
– I have a video that I made to share with students
– I have awards to virtually give out
– We are sharing riddles, jokes, stories (one of our favorite pastimes in the classroom)

Please send me an email or message if your child cannot join the virtual class end of the year party!

Also- on a different note, these last few months have put all of us behind. It is recommended to continue to do some reading and math practice over the summer so you will be prepared for 5th grade. Therefore, I have create this letter that contains a list of activities you can do over the summer!

I will see you later on today and enjoy your well deserved summer!!
-Mrs. Hull

First a foremost, thank you all for being so flexible and understanding during this big change and end of the school year! I couldn’t have done it with you!!

Here are some important things I wanted to communicate to you:

* Report Cards are submitted. They will be mailed to your homes! Here is how Dearborn Schools and Lindbergh Staff have calculated report card participation:

M – Meeting Grade Level – All or most work was turned in.

P – Progressing – Some work was turned in.

LP – Limited Participation – Very few or no work was turned in.

*Throughout the last 7 weeks, I have kept a spreadsheet of submitted work. This is what I based the Weekly Progress Reports on that I would send out Friday.

*Due dates were given for each assignment, however if something was turned in the week following a Progress Report, I counted it. 

*This was an extraordinary time for all of us! I would never expect 100% participation in these circumstances. I know some real sacrifices were made to help our kids, struggles were had, technology presented challenges, and we were all trying to stay safe and healthy! I really believe that most students did the best they could, and I am proud of the efforts of all of your families to help out! Please don’t feel “disappointed” if your child does not get all M’s. This report card will obviously have the asterisk* next to it with COVID 19 labeled. This card marking is more of a record keeping for us and a way to look ahead to the best practices for everyone when all of you return to school in the Fall.

Lastly, I will be at the school tomorrow during the 5th grade pick up that parents have coordinated. I will be there anywhere from 11:30-1:30. I wanted to let you know- many parents were asking. You are welcome to drive by the school if you would like to wave goodbye, I would love to see you!!

We will still be doing our final virtual classroom celebration tomorrow though and I can see you that way too! It will be at 3:00! Please message me if that time does not workout for your family. I would like to get as many students on as I can!!

Thank you for such a wonderful school year and I will see everyone next year around the school!

-Mrs. Hull

Dear Parent(s),

Every year, billions of dollars in federal funding go to hospitals, fire departments, schools, roads, and other resources based on census data.

For a better future of our city, schools, and students , please click on the link now and fill out the census. It only takes a few minutes from your time to make a difference.

Happy Tuesday Everyone!!

There are just two things happening today:

Hi Everyone!

I just wanted to let you know what should be returned tomorrow to the classroom:

-Any classroom books
– Any reading group books
– Any library books
– Protactors

That is it for me! There will be a bin with my name on it outside, you can put the items there. Please do not return any notebooks, math books, or folders. You can keep those!

I have put together a paper bag full of student things in it and everything that was in their locker! I labeled them on the front with the name and our classroom number to find it easily.

Please let me know if you need anything else or have any questions!! Thank you.
