Thanks so much for sharing your children with me this school year, it has been a real pleasure. Everyone had a fantastic year and learned so much. They will do great in second grade and in the future! I hope all of you have a safe and fun summer! Don’t forget to read everyday! Enjoy the pictures!
I forgot to mention if you can please send in a towel with your child today for field day. The fire truck will be here and will squirt the kids. Thanks!
Sorry for the late post. I wanted to thank everyone for coming to the zoo last week. Everyone had a great time! Can you believe it’s the last week of school?! Please read:
Tomorrow (Tuesday) is field day! If your child has a Howe shirt, please wear it and gym shoes.
I’m sure you’ve heard by now, but they cancelled school for Wednesday due to the heat. So the picnic has been cancelled unfortunately.
Thursday is pajama day. Students may also bring in a stuffed animal and a board game to play.
Friday is the last day of school with a 12:05 dismissal. Students should wear tie dye if they have it. Students will get their report cards, NWEA test scores, and their supply list for next year on Friday.
Please let me know ASAP if your child’s last day will be earlier than Friday.
Tomorrow is our trip! Please check the weather in the morning and dress appropriately. We are going rain or shine. If you don’t have a Howe shirt you can wear whatever you want. Please let me know if you will just meet us there instead of coming to Howe first in the morning. Please be there at 9:50 at the end of the large parking garage ramp. Don’t forget your yellow parking pass!
I hope everyone had a good weekend. This week June 6-10:
This Friday is our last spelling test of the school year. Please study!
Wednesday is our field trip! Going home today is all the info with your parking pass. Let me know if you have any questions.

Detroit Zoo Field Trip Details – Wednesday, June 8th
*Please check in with your teacher that morning at Howe when you drop off your other children in the FRONT parking lot. (We will be standing out there from 8:40-9am) If you do not need to come to Howe then please email your teacher as a way to check in.
*Then head straight to the zoo. We will meet as a large group right by the end of the parking garage ramp. We can only enter as a whole group so please be prompt with a 9:50 arrival. Parking can take some time so take that into account. They will let us in beginning at 10 am.
*Please wear a Howe school shirt or your classroom faces t-shirt that day ☺
*You may bring or buy lunch at the zoo.
*We will meet at the playground between 12-12:30 pm for a quick check in. (The playground is on the left side of the zoo on the outside walking loop)
*After check in you are free to roam the zoo and leave whenever you need to. We will NOT be checking you out.
*****Remember you must have this parking pass that is attached to get out of the parking lot or garage! DO NOT forget it or you will have to buy a new one*****
I hope everyone had a nice long weekend. Only 13 more days left of this school year! This week May 31 – June 3:
There are only two more spelling tests left, this Friday and next Friday. Please study!
For some reason the Benchmark site is not cooperating, so no assigned Benchmark work this week!
May reading logs are due tomorrow. I am sending home a summer reading log packet that will include June, July, and August. Students that return the completed reading log packet to me in the fall will get a prize! I am also sending home the June calendar today.
More detailed info about the field trip will be going home early next week. Also more info about the end of the year activities will be going home soon as well.
Our last popcorn day is this Friday. Bring $1!
