Dear Families,
We have a lot of things planned for this week! Here is what you need to know:
Spelling Words: lip hip rip zip + one more “ip” word + your child’s individual words
Please make sure that your child is practicing their individual words.
Although we practice spelling throughout the day at school, please make it a daily habit at home.
Leader in Me Habit 7: We will continue to work on Sharpening the Saw-Learning how “balance is best!” If you have any pictures of your family “Sharpening the Saw” at home, please send them in!
Monday: We went to gym and art today. Homework will be sent home in your child’s red folder. For this week’s homework your child will be making a poster for Thursday’s Clean-Up Parade! Posters are due on Thursday!!! See details below!
We will be previewing the book fair in the morning but no money needs to be sent in today.
Tuesday: We will be taking the NWEA Reading Test today in the morning. Please make sure that your child comes to school well-rested. Return library books. Music with Mrs. Baloga. Afterwards, we will do Spring Planting in the front of the school.
Wednesday: We will be working with our Leadership Buddies today.
We will check out a new library book from the Media Center.
Thursday: Clean-Up Posters are due!! We will be in the Lindbergh’s Clean-Up Parade at 1:30 p.m. For those of you who did not grow up in Dearborn, this is a long running event in Dearborn. The whole school will march down the streets and encourage neighbors to Clean up- Fix Up- Paint up!
Friday: Students need to wear gym shoes. We will go to the computer lab with Mrs. Ackerman.
Decades ago, Ms. Wright was marching in Dearborn’s Clean-Up Parades.
