As Teacher Appreciation Week winds down, please accept my humble and sincere thanks for the notes, treats, presents, and gift cards so many of you sent to school. Your generosity stretches beyond words. The notes validate my efforts in the classroom each day, the treats and presents are so reflective of my personality, and the gift cards often give me a night off from cooking at home. I am honored to teach your children each day, and I thank you for recognizing me over this past week :)
Meantime, the kids are busy practicing for the International Music Program on May 30th. It's a busy time of the year!
4th Quarter Interim Progress Reports:
4th Quarter Interim Progress Reports ("interims") will be issued Wednesday, May 16th. If your child receives an interim, it will be emailed to you on Wednesday, May 16th using the email address on file in your ParentVue account.
Spring Pictures:
Please remember to have your child return their spring pictures no later than Monday, May 14th if you are not purchasing them. If you are purchasing your child's pictures, then please send in payment by Monday as well. Thank you!
Coins for our Money Unit:
If you have not yet sent in your child's coins for our money unit, please send them to school with your child on Monday.
Focus Areas for the Coming Week:
- Reading-We will learn lessons from the books that we read by thinking about what problem gets solved and how the character feels at the end of the story. We will discuss and share opinions about books.
- Writing-We will continue to learn about poetry and go outside for a poet's inspiration
- Math-We will finish our time unit and begin our money unit to learn about the value of a penny, nickel, dime, and quarter.
- Science- We will begin our study of plants. We will talk about what plants need to grow, identify the parts of a plant, discuss each part's function, and learn about the life cycle of a plant.
Questions, comments, and feedback are always welcome!
Happy Mother's Day to the moms! I wish you many blessings, and a day that honors you for the love, dedication, and support you offer your sweet children everyday! Thank you for sharing them with me!
