Parents,
It is hard to believe this will be the last full week of school for the 2017-2018 school year! It has been such a pleasure teaching your amazing children. We have had such a great year together😊 Next week we will not have homework other than to read 20 minutes each night. Students can add these minutes to their Biblionasium log (they got information last week from Mr. Sproat) so they can begin earning minutes for that prize!
Our class celebration will be on Monday May 21st at noon. We will have a fun movie theater and snacks along with items for the students to buy with their class cash. We will also have a small store where they can buy items IF we get enough items. A letter was sent home last week from our room moms for you to either send in $5 or donate dollar store items for students to purchase. We have only gotten a few responses and NEED your support for this part of our celebration😊 Please send in small items or $5 next week so the room moms can make this a success!
Thanks for all you do and for sharing your children with me this last year!
