The Card and Flower Palace will be delivering the purchased flowers on Friday, May 9. This Economic Unit of Instruction has been a wonderful way for the children to learn about business, the academic language of economics and economic concepts. I hope you have been talking with your children about the business. Mrs. Bush and I are very proud of all the work they have done and all the learning that has taken place. We are so pleased with the support we have gotten from Mrs. Waddell, you the parents, the Whitmore-Bolles school community and our flower supplier, Fisher Flowers. Thank you!!!

The Book Fair is this week. We will go on Thursday.

Our Tea for that Special Someone will be Friday, May 9 at 2:30.

We continue to work on multiplication in Math. Also, in Science we are focused on Living Things. We are using the Scientific Process as we conduct a plant experiment.

We are improving in citing sources in our informational writing. We are learning that sources can include media, such as videos, in addition to text from books or online sites.

The end of the school year is fast approaching. Now is a good time to look into the Summer Reading Programs at the libraries. Barnes and Noble has a Summer Reading Program too. Have your children read all summer, so they are ready for fourth grade.
