Welcome back to school!!!
I am very excited about the class this year; I know that we are going to have lots of fun! As you may have heard, I am pregnant! This means that I will only be teaching for the first term. I know that the teacher that will take over will be amazing. I sent home a lot of information and there is more to come this week, so please keep checking your child's planner. Please make sure your child has runners ASAP, and gym strip by the end of next week. Students may bring a small pillow to school to use that will remain in their lockers. We would also love if you could send a lonely sock, mitten, or glove to be a whiteboard eraser. I'm sending a paper bag home to fill with 5-10 items that your child likes for a social studies activity. Please bring these to school on Tuesday. Make sure the items don't give away the identity of your child. These will be returned on Tuesday. Thanks for your support! :)

The assembly is at 1:00 and dismissal will take at 2:30. We are in the process of cleaning out the classroom! Make sure to pack bags for your child so it is easier to bring stuff home! Thank you! Happy June!

Bring library books back on Monday, and we will have our last exchange on Wednesday. Wednesday is the District track meet. I will be attending and Mrs. Wilson will be teaching the class. Friday is Play Day! Come on out and help! It should be a blast! Please return the Art Gallery field trip forms with $8 as soon as possible.

We have no formal library exchange next week, but students can return and renew books at lunch or before school. Our LAST math test will be on May 31st. It will be testing the students on measurement and geometry! Review sheets are available and we will be doing a class review on Monday, May 30th to prepare us for our test the next day! Students have begun their Passion Projects! Our focus this year has been on the inquiry process, so now they are putting it into action independently using a topic of their choosing. These will be done in class and presented the last week of school. Their marks will be on an insert in their report card envelopes. They have information packages that they can bring home if you are curious! Dates to remember... Apple Bowl: June 6th Play Day: June 10th Our last few field trips are coming up as well, and notices will be sent home closer to the dates. Thank you! Only 2 months left!
We only have track and field on Monday this week, as the grade sixes are away on their year end trip. It is class and school photo day on Monday, May 9th! Dress nicely!!! We have library exchange on Monday. Thank you SO much to those of you who came to our Science Fair! The grade 4s and 5s worked so hard on these projects and it was clear that a lot of learning happened! Next week, the grade 5s from Mrs. Shanks' class will be joining us on Wednesday until Friday while the grade sixes are away. Please return the Apple Bowl permission form, as well as our fraction and decimal math test. Thank you so much! How is it the end of April??? It is also the Duke and Duchesses 5th anniversary today!
Next week things start to get crazy! Track and Field starts on Monday! Thank you to those parents who volunteered to help out at our practices every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoon (except May 11th and 13th). We will be participating at Districts this year, so more help is needed! Students NEED gym strip. If they forget their gym strip 3 times they cannot participate (school rule). It is part of being prepared for physical activity. If a student is sick or injured, he or she requires a note from a parent or doctor if he or she needs to sit out to prevent students from opting out of participating. It is a lot of fun and the kids really enjoy the activities! Next week is our science fair! Our school science fair is Wednesday morning from 9-10. We would like to invite you to our community science fair on Thursday, May 5th from 12:30-1:30! Please bring family and friends to come and take a peek at what the students have been working on over the past several weeks. Library exchange is on Monday. We have our fractions and decimals test on Tuesday! I told students to bring their math books home to study and offered to provide practice sheets. Thank you! Happy Earth Day! Thank you to those that sent your child with a waste free lunch! It was neat to see how we can help the environment by making small changes.
Next week we have library exchange on Monday. Please have your child start bringing gym strip if they have not been as we are starting track May 2nd and gym strip is required or they will lose marks. Next Tuesday and Thursday is the Drama Festival for parents! If you are unsure as to when your child is performing, send me a note and we can record the date and time in your child's planner. Our Science Fair date is drawing near! I will send more information home next week. We will be completing the boards at school. We have a gymnastics professional coming in next week to teach us on Monday and Friday! Our last spelling test of the year is in 2 weeks! Thank you! What a gorgeous week we've had!
Library exchange is on Monday, and we will be wrapping up our lacrosse unit next week. Our spelling test is on Friday. We only have one more spelling test after this one! If you are interested in helping out with track and field (starting May 2nd) please let me know! Next week, our class and the rest of the intermediates will be performing their plays for the school! The parent show is the following week. Thank you! We survived our first full week back!
We have library exchange on Monday, and PE on Monday and Thursday. There is a cultural assembly on Friday. KLO is hosting an assembly Monday morning. The kids did a PHENOMENAL job on their science fair experiments! We will be putting the boards together in class starting next week.
