Field Trip Thursday

Thursday is our field trip to Ogden Nature Center, 966 W. 12th St. Ogden.  Unfortunately, we do not have certified drivers who have volunteered to drive for this field trip, so all rides will need to be arranged on your own.  For liability reasons, I cannot arrange rides with non-certified drivers, you will need to arrange your own rides.  I understand how this can be challenging for some, but feel free to ask classroom friends, if a ride is needed.  We will meet at North Shore about 11:50 a.m.  Students will eat lunch at school before we leave the school.  Students will be dropped off in the parking lot of Ogden Nature Center about 12:15 p.m.  We will walk in together, in order to start our program at 12:30 p.m.  Students need to be picked up from Ogden Nature Center at 2:30 p.m.  If you plan to take your own child directly after the field trip, it is not necessary to meet me back at the school, but please tell your child to bring their lunch box and backpack when they leave the school at 11:50 p.m. and make certain it is communicated back to me that they are leaving with you for the day.  Remaining students will meet back in front of the school and we will enter the school together as a group. If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to email me.

Important: parents are invited and encouraged to attend, but no siblings may attend, even infants.  This is a strict policy of Ogden Nature Center.  There is a $3 fee to attend, this will be paid at Ogden Nature Center.

Spelling Bee Lists

Today your child was given a list to practice for our school spelling bee.  These lists are not by grade level, but more ability level.  Students are encouraged to practice these lists at home and be ready to have an in class spelling bee on Monday the 18th.  We will determine our top 3 spellers, from our class, that will go on to represent us in the lower el spelling bee, on Friday, April 22nd.  If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to email me.
