Info for the week

Due to the holiday today, there will be no new spelling words this week. Students will continue to practice the words from last week.

Don't forget tomorrow our Ewell friends will be spending the morning with us. Please remember to bring your smiling faces back to school tomorrow.

Here is the latest scoop and the last calendar of the year! Yikes! It's hard to believe we only have 12 1/2 days left. Where did this year go?!

Don't forget Fun Run is Friday morning. If you haven't turned in a permission slip yet, I need one in order to allow your child to participate! I will not be there Friday morning due to a doctor's appointment. Please make sure your permission slip is turned in by Thursday.

Lastly, Dino Dig is Thursday. Money is due by Wednesday. Reminders will be going home tomorrow!

Congratulations!

The top 4 students in each grade that scored the

most points for the year won a certificate. We had two of the top 4

second graders in our class! Great job Haley and Mario!!

Abbie and Alex G. were our Accelerated
Reader winners for the last contest of the year.

They won a lunch with a magician!

Tentative DQ date

I am looking to plan our DQ walk for Monday, June 7th.  I am planning on leaving at 1:00ish.  Please let me know if you think you might be able to help chaperone this event.  Thanks for your help!!

Some Interesting Info!

The Switzer Fun Run will be next Friday, June 4th. We will be running in the morning at 9:30-10:00 Your child needs to have a permission slip on file in order to participate in the Fun Run. Unfortunately, I will not in school that morning. I had a doctor's appointment scheduled for after we got out of school, but my doctor had to reschedule! I apologize for not being there, but hope you understand! :) If you need a copy of the permission slip, click the link and send in as soon as possible!

Also the Dino Dig will be Thursday, June 3rd. The cost of this fun-filled morning is $6.50, please send money in soon and let me know if you are able to volunteer and donate your time that morning! Thanks so much!!

Sorry!

I meant to post this earlier in the week, so hopefully your child has already informed you that spelling words are the same this week.  I was out Monday and Tuesday last week for testing and with the field trip on Wednesday, I don't feel the kids got a good grasp on the concept. 

In the Dino Dig note that went home today, there was a typo.  The Dino Dig is scheduled for Thursday, June 3rd!!  Please mark your calendars.  If anyone is able to help the morning of, please let me know. 

Lastly, next Tuesday is our volunteer luncheon.  Students are asked to show their spirit by wearing baseball attire or baseball uniforms!

Tomorrow is ACES (All Children Exercise Simultaneously) day.  In the past, this has been a school-wide event, however, the school is not participating this year.  Since this is an international event to encourage students to be active, I feel it is a great way to promote a healthy lifestyle and fight childhood obesity.  We are going to do something as a class.  Please have your child dress in comfy clothes and tennis shoes, we will be doing an exercise video in class to participate at 10am with students around the world.  If you would like more information about ACES, go to http://lensaunders.com/aces/aces.html. 
Thanks for your cooperation!
