Hello,
Next week is teacher appreciation week. Each day will be an opportunity for your child to do something to show their appreciation to their teachers. Monday is best grace and courtesy. Tuesday is bring a flower, real or fake. Wednesday is make a memory, draw a picture, make a card, or write a note. Thursday is give your teacher a drink. Friday is wear your teacher’s favorite color.
Some drinks I enjoy are real fruit juice drinks and water. I really am not super picky when it comes down to it. I don’t drink coffee and I don’t particularly like tea. Ms. SarahJo likes sweet tea. Her favorite is Milos. She also likes coffee.
My favorite color is blue and Ms. SarahJo’s is red.
The sign ups for parent teacher conferences are up. Here is the link: https://www.wejoinin.com/sheets/fwijs. These conferences will be mostly student led, so please plan on bringing your child with you.
I feel like I was barely in the classroom this last week. I was out of the classroom for an hour Monday afternoon and was out all day Tuesday with a stomach bug. I spent part of the morning Wednesday with level 3s at a wonderful bee presentation. Thursday I spent the morning at level 3 testing. It was great to be back in the classroom all day today. We learned about Cinco de Mayo. I also gave the kids a fun writing prompt that they just ran away with. They loved it and many wrote more than I have ever seen them write. Tuesday is lost sock memorial day. I asked them to write a story about where the socks go, what adventures they go on, and how they got there. Listening to what they wrote was amazing!
We also finished the BFG. We are going to be watching the movie based on this book and learning about comparing and Venn diagrams. We will compare the similarities and differences of the two. This movie is rated PG. If you would not like your child watching it, please let me know. We plan on watching it Friday. It is currently on Netflix if you wish to watch it yourself.
Have a great weekend.
