Family and friends are invited to help celebrate the world of producers and consumers by shopping at our market from 9am-11am on Tuesday, April 24th. All goods will range from .10 cents to $1.00. All Haigh students will have the opportunity to shop at our market, so if your child would like to purchase something, please send them to school with money. Hope to see you Tuesday!

It’s time for the Penny/Nickel challenge!

This week, we are continuing our endangered animal adoption project. We are reusing milk jugs to collect money for adopting a wolf through the Detroit Zoo, and we need your help!

We are asking for your help with our penny/nickel challenge.

Bring in as many extra pennies or nickels as you can to help fill our jugs! At the end of the week, we’ll count up the totals and announce our winners!

Did you know???

A single wolf can eat up to 20 pounds of food in one sitting!

Good Afternoon Parents,

The 4^th and 5^th grade classes are participating in a cardboard challenge in honor of Earth Day. Students are creating a game that is primarily made out of a cardboard box (other materials can be used as well, but the main material should be cardboard). If you have not had the chance to watch the video, Caine’s Arcade, please do so. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faIFNkdq96U The focus is to use recycled materials in honor of Earth Day, please don’t run out and buy items.

Students should work on this project primarily at home. We will only have one day in class before the presentation date to finish up. Students can work alone or in groups. For fifth grade, this is not a graded project but we are encouraging all students to participate!

Your child will have a chance to share their game with the lower grades at the end of April (exact date TBD).  Students from grades k-3 will have the chance to play the games while your child runs them. Should be a fun activity for all to enjoy!

Miss Wilson

M-Step starts tomorrow! We will be doing ELA this week and Math next week. We will be testing only tuesday, wednesday and thursday in the morning. I told the students they could bring two snacks… one healthy one for the morning to have before/during testing. If any parent would be willing to donate a snack or breakfast for the class please contact me! wilsonm@dearbornschools.org

Get a good nights sleep and don’t stress! Remind your students just to try their best 🙂

Attention Parents!

Dear Families,

Our February PBIS celebration is almost here and the kids are so excited to make a competition out of this month’s activity with a CASTLE CUP CHALLENGE! Each grade level will be divided up into small groups and will have the opportunity to work with their classmates to design and create the best structure they can imagine.

In order to make this celebration possible, we are asking for donations of        16 ounce plastic cups (typical red Solo cups). The more cups we have, the more the kids will get to use in their creation.

If you are able to donate, please send the cups in with your student no later than Monday, February 26th.

Thank you so much for your continued support – it truly is appreciated!

The PBIS Committee
