From snow to rain…agh!
The rain messed up our lapathon day so they had to run in the gym. You are getting a piece of paper with their actual laps on it. Their punch card has a lot more punches. Since the gym is so much smaller than the laps walked outside, they averaged about 4 laps in the gym to one outside. If someone is paying by the lap, go by the number on the white sheet, not the number of punches. Please get those donations in next week.
Bookworms are due on Wed. May 1st. We have to have them in to tally up who should be getting a pin for their lanyard, so please send them in on Wed.
This week we celebrated all things to do with Earth Day. We talked about, wrote about, and did an art project all about saving the Earth.
In math, we are starting position words. Please work on left and right at home. I still have kiddos that are confusing them.
We had a fun assembly to celebrate everyone’s success these past few weeks and had a special guest…Sluggerrr! The kids thought that was great!
Next week we will start our Kids as Teachers days. It’s always so much fun to see what they have to teach us. Please be sure they are prepared on their day and that they practice at home. It should last about 8-10 minutes if possible. Thanks for helping them be successful with this project!
I hope you got to check out our animal reports at Open House. We will be doing a similar research project next week on ocean animals, but this time, they will be with partners instead of in groups.
Please be sure May 9th is on your calendar for our Mother’s Day tea.
Just an fyi, I will be gone on Tuesday all day. I will be going to a Science training. Please remind the kids that day to be on their extra best behavior for our guest teacher.
I think that’s it for this week. It’s another basketball weekend at my house and helping prepare Hannah for her Scout gold award presentation which is next week. Wish us luck! Have a great weekend!
