Week 35 (Recap and NEW Info)!

Only 9 more days left of school…can you believe it?!?!?  I can’t believe the end of the year has approached us!  I feel as though we just got started.  I guess the saying is right…”Time flies when you are having fun!”

!!!!Attention!!!!  When the temperature outside rises, the temperature in our classroom does as well!  Unfortunately, we do not have air conditioning in our classroom to help us during the hot, humid days.  Please dress your child appropriately for the heat and make sure to send them to school with a reusable water bottle each day, with ICE COLD water!  Thank you!

 

What we did during our week:

Language Arts: We will review all standards learned this year!

Writing:    In writing, we will review informational, narrative and opinion!

Math:  We will review all standards learned this year!

Science: We had a great turn out for our Ocean Family Day!  Thank you to everyone who showed up! A special thanks to my volunteers who helped me buy items for our party, coming in to help set up  and staying after tearing everything down!  I couldn’t have done it without all of you!  Also, thank you to the parents who helped me out with the chairs and always asking to lend a helping hand…it means so much!  Here are some pictures of our event:)  Enjoy!
