Box Tops Store

Hello,

I hope you are all enjoying this weekend.

Thank you to all who were able to donate jars and flowers. We decorated the jars and delivered them with flowers to everyone who works at the school. So many of them said it was wonderful and thanked me, but truly it was the students who should be thanked. They worked hard together.

Just a reminder that the box tops store is this Wednesday the 22.

We have a field trip to the dinosaur park on Monday, May 11. The permission slip will be coming home the week before.

The next home projects will be due the week of May 11. for this final home project it will be student’s choice. They can pick to do their report on what they want as long as it is school appropriate. Please make sure they find at least 5 facts about whatever they choose. For example, if they want to present on somewhere they went for a trip, include some fun facts about the place.

Thank you for all you do.

Thank You

Hello,

Thank you to everyone who was able to donate glass bottles for our service project with Nicoletta’s class this Friday. We enough now so no worries about sending anymore. We are going to be decorating the jars and putting some flowers in them for all the teachers and workers at the school. If any of you can donate flowers and send them on Friday that would be great. They do not have to be anything fancy or expensive, just nice flowers.

This Thursday will be the day that the kids are being tested for the spelling bee to see who will go to the school wide lower elementary spelling bee. Don’t forget to help your child study if they are wanting to participate.

I know we are getting to the end of the year and clothes have been worn a lot. Just a reminder that clothing needs to be free of holes. Thank you for your support with this.

Take care. Enjoy this wet, cold weather.

Art Projects

Hello All,

What a great week back from spring break. I am so glad we got some rain but I also love the sunshine.

I have enjoyed all the home projects that have been presented so far. Please feel free to send them in next week if your child has been unable to finish theirs. Our next home projects will be your child’s choice. I will have more information on that next week.

Don’t forget that Monday is the last day to order something with your child’s artwork on it. A green plastic bag went home with the art piece, order form, and information. All proceeds from that go to our classroom. Let me know if you have any questions.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend.

Welcome Back

Hello,

Welcome back from spring break. I hope you all enjoyed the time off with your children.

Reminder that home projects are due this week.

The fundraiser for our classrooms went home today. Your child brought home a green bag with their artwork and the order information. If you choose to order something with your child’s art one it, please send the order form, the artwork, and a check to MMA back to school by next Monday. You can also order something with other children’s art on it. Some kids said they wanted to order something with the picture I made on it. I told the students I would leave that choice to you. I will not be offended in the least if you do not order something with my picture. If you want something with mine, let me know and I will send home another order form for it. All proceeds for this fundraiser go to our classroom so we can use the money specifically for us.

We will be doing a service project with Ms. Nicoletta’s class next Friday. We need glass jars for it. If you have some you can donate please send them. They can be mason jars, pickle jars, etc. They just need to be glass. Thanks.

Thanks for all you do.

Dress Down and Class Pictures

Hello Everyone,

Tomorrow we will getting our class picture taken as a whole class for the yearbook. Please make sure your child is wearing school uniform. I would love it if all the students could be there but I understand that things happen that are out of our control.

Also, this Friday will be dress down day for the students. This means they will be able to wear jeans, no holes and shorts the appropriate length. They must still wear a solid colored, collared shirt.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks.

Spring Break Next Week

Hello,

Spring is here! We had such a good day at school yesterday. We enjoyed lunch in the sunshine and had a blast with the new playground that is right outside the door by our classroom. We also learned a bit about Egypt and are in the process of decorating sarcophaguses. It was great to watch the kids work together on them.

Don’t forget about home projects. We have had some good ones already.

Next week, March 30 – April 3 is spring break. We will not have school that whole week.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.
