Hi Parents,
Lots of important
information! This email takes place of our weekly blog post!
Tie Dye:
*We are tie dying today.
Thank you for all your support in sending shirts!
*We will be wearing our
shirts to the Science Center and the Runge Center in May.
Field Trip on Friday:
*We will be wearing our
tie-dye shirts to the field trip. These will come home Thursday night and
will already be washed and ready to go. Please make sure your child comes
dressed in the shirt on Friday morning. This is how we will ensure our group
stays together!
*If you signed up to bring a
lunch please write your name on the outside to make it easier to
pass out.
*Students need to ride the
bus to the field trip, but parents may sign their own child out afterwards and
drive them home themselves. Please make sure you sign out before leaving for my
sanity J
*Our bus is pulling out of
the parking lot at 7:30am. Unfortunately we cannot wait for
students who are late, or we will not have enough time to explore the
center. Please plan to have your child at school between 7:00-7:20 to allow for
enough bathroom time. There will not be someone here to open the doors before 7
am, though.
*Electronics are allowed for
the bus ride. Students are responsible for their own items, though. We
will leave them on the bus while in the center.
*If you are volunteering for
this field trip (Thank you!!), you will receive an agenda for the day, Science
Center map, and the students in your group on Friday morning. I will also have
directions for you already printed out!
Service Learning Project:
*We are collecting the
Math-a-thon pledges on Friday, April 7th (just leave it in their
backpack and we will get to it after the field trip). Please let me know
if you need an additional pledge sheet.
*We have been practicing our
math facts daily using Rocket Math. We are taking our math fact test for our
“Math-a-thon for Hurricane Matthew” on Tuesday, April 11th.
This is only for students. We will score these as quickly as possible and let
you know the scores. We will then send emails out to everyone on the
pledge sheet letting them know how the child they pledged for did! Cash
and (most likely) checks will be accepted. We will let you know who to
make the checks out to once we get to that point.
*Thank you so much for the
silent auction items. Please continue to send in items :O)
*Students wrote to several
businesses and have heard back from Sparky’s and Flat Branch!!! Sparky’s
gave us 5 $20 gift cards, and Flat Branch donated a $50 gift card! We are
still working on responses from the other businesses.
*We will send you more
information about April 19th once we have everything planned
out. Here is what we have so far: At 11:30, the doors to the gym will
open for you to come look at and bid on our silent auction baskets. At
11:50, students will join us for a “Picnic in the gym.” Feel free to
bring lawn chairs, blankets, and even a special lunch for your child! You
may continue to bid on baskets at this time. You will also get a chance
to look at business letters students wrote, listen to a few kiddos speak about
helping others, and hear who the top mathematicians were in each
class. It should be a fun event!
I think that’s it. :O)
Thanks so much! Let me know
if you have any questions
Katie
