Good morning parents-
It was such a delight to see a lot of you on Thursday night at Literacy Night. I would like to give a big thank you to one of our parents, Wendy Knight, she is an author/ writer and was a huge organizer in putting together Literacy Week and Literacy Knight. She organized the other authors for an assembly, class visits and then the night of Literacy Knight. Thank you so much Wendy for all of your help!

Another exciting event that takes place during Literacy Week, is our Spelling Bee’s. This is our first year having students go forward to the State Spelling Bee. This year, Jace Otto, a fifth grader in our class won the UE/ JH Spelling Bee and came in second place in the school wide Spell Off. He will be representing our school and class at the State Spelling Bee later this month in Salt Lake City.
This week:
Tuesday: Maturation for 5th graders at 9:00, parents please come to support your child and to learn more from a parent perspective and child perspective.
Wednesday: Specials (Computers, Music, PE) this day, because we will be on a field trip the following day. Please make sure your child has appropriate shoes for PE- they are running this semester.
Thursday: Class field trip to the State Capital with Ms. Kirsten’s class. We were awarded a grant for this field trip from the state, which also includes taking a bus. The bus will leave the school at 9:00 and will return to school at 3:00. We have Heather Fielden chaperoning this field trip- thank you. Please send your child with appropriate clothing, there will be a time we are walking outside, as well as a throwaway lunch. (Beckam and Alex need to turn their forms in by Monday.)

Have a fantastic week,
Ms. Nicoletta
