A few updates and reminders for you:
1) Please DO NOT have your child do iReady this week. Tests are loaded and the office DOES NOT want students to take the test at this time. Thank you!
2) The date on the homework packet I sent home was wrong. Rest assured the packet that went home is for this week. The story of the week is Read, White, and Blue.
3) Our field trip to see Bye, Bye Birdie is THIS Wednesday, May 25th. We will be off campus from about 8:30 to 11am. Please be sure your child is at school on time, we will be leaving at 8:35.
4) There will be NO SCHOOL next Monday, May 30th as we observe Memorial Day.
This week in ELA we are working on comprehension, quotation marks, homophones, poetry, and phonics. In Math we are working on mixed word problems. In Science we are learning about Motion. In Social Studies we are continuing on our Town Builder project. This week we are also working on a fun multidisciplinary unit on Ladybugs.

Writing Prompt
A Birthday Party for Tia tells about a child finding the perfect present for a favorite aunt. Think about family celebrations. Now write a story about a character that is planning a family celebration. Please write 6-8 sentences with your best handwriting on lined paper. Thank you!
iReady
Please do NOT do any iReady lessons this week, iReady tests are pending. Thank you
In closing, I'd also like to remind you that students should be appropriately dressed for the weather and that ALL students need to have a water bottle to keep at school as we do not have cups to offer them should they be thirsty. If your child needs sunscreen, please apply it before they come to school. Thanks so much!
Have a great week!
Miss Jenny
