Friday, May 6th

Friday, May 6th

Dear Parents,

It is hard to believe that we only have 14 days of school remaining. Over the next few weeks, students will be writing and publishing many poems.  We would like to invite you to our poetry reading on Tuesday, May 24th  at 9:00 am.  Each student will share two poems aloud.

We had two special guests this week.  On Tuesday, our 7th grade writing buddies visited our classroom to share a draft of their story.  All of the students were excited to see each other and share their work.  Our last meeting will be a walking field trip on Thursday, May 19th.  Field trip permission slips are coming home in Friday folders today and should be returned as soon as possible.  We do not need any chaperones for this trip.  Thank you! Our second guest was Ms. Pam from the Fire Department.  She visited third grade and talked to us about bicycle safety. Be sure to ask your child what they learned about how to properly fit a bicycle helmet and the rules of the road while bicycling. We always love having her come to visit us.
