This will be our last week of regular morning work cycle.  I would like for our monthly home projects to be presented by the end of the week.  If for some reason you need to go into the following week, please let me know so we can schedule accordingly.   We had a handful of students who went on vacations to exciting places this month and would like to encourage you to have your child prepare a presentation (home project) to share with the class.

We will be having students from the kindergarten classrooms shadowing in our classroom this week.  Level 1’s and 2’s will be able to introduce themselves to the students who will be joining us next year.  This is such an exciting time of the year.  We will be having a special bridging ceremony for the kindergarteners moving up to first grade this Thursday.  We will be having a picnic lunch this day and I ask that you not send a lunch that needs to be warmed up.  Third grade parents should have received an email about your child’s ceremony for May 27th.

Field day is Friday.  Lower El will be participating in the morning from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.  The North Ogden Fire Department will be coming to the school at 2:15 pm to squirt the kids with water in the school field area. PARENTS NOTE: Please put sunscreen on your child or send sunscreen (labeled with your child’s name) with your child to school so they can apply it themselves. Each child needs to bring a towel and wear a swimming suit under their clothes. For girls, their swimming suit needs to be a one piece (NO 2-PIECE OR TANKINI) will be allowed.

Fat Boy ice cream fundraiser forms are due Monday.  Friday afternoon will be the ice cream pick up at the North Shore parking lot.

Snack help for this week is much appreciated.  If you have surplus of anything at home the kids would love to use it this week.
