Greetings! As we progress towards the end of the year, we still have much to complete. Students will be working on their end-of-year essays, portfolios and portfolio reflections, and wrapping up their Culinary Projects. Many opportunities have been made available within class to allow students to really perfect these items or ask questions. Please let me know if your student needs further assistance that they have not requested already.
We are done with SAGE testing- Yay!- yet will continue reading evaluations this week. We will also be continuing concentrations in math, geometry and reading.
Monday we will participate in the UE Swap Meet. Students have had a couple of weeks to earn Montessori money of different denominations within the classroom. This “money” can be used to buy and sell items at our Swap Meet on Monday, May 14th from 9-11 am. The students can rent a booth for a dollar and sell their “wares.” Many students have been planning for some time what they wish to sell and the business partnerships they will create. Some are selling waters, muffins, artwork, and much more. Food products MUST have full ingredient cards to display with the items in order to be offered at the meet. I am excited to see what the children will bring!
