Back to School Night, Field Trip, and more....

Just a reminder that Back to School Night is Tuesday, September 19th from 6:30 - 8:00 pm.  This is an adults only event.  I'm looking forward to seeing/meeting you all!

On October 6th, we will be taking a field trip to Farmer Dave's.  Information about our field trip went home this week.  Please return the permission slip and money as soon as you can (if you haven't already).  We've had many parents kindly volunteer to chaperone!  We are only allowed 3-4 chaperones per classroom, so I will be putting parents names in a hat and selecting chaperones by Sept. 27th. Chaperones must have a CORI on file with central office.

Thank you for all the great pictures you have send in for our writing project! We will begin working on our project next week.

Spirit Week 6/19-6/23

Monday: RAINBOW DAY
Tuesday: WACKY TACKY DAY
Wednesday: CRAZY HAT DAY
Thursday: NEON DAY
Friday: MEMORIAL SPIRIT WEAR DAY

field day tomorrow!

Field day is tomorrow!  Since we will be spending lots of time outside in the sun, I wanted to share a message from the nurse about sunscreen: The FDA considers sunscreen an over-the-counter medication, therefore, without medical documentation, (Medical diagnosis, and doctor's order etc.), school staff is not allowed to apply it during school hours. Please apply sunscreen to your child before coming to school, or, you may come during the day and apply it.

Tide Pool Fun

We had so much fun at the tide pool! Thank you Mr. Musselman, Ms. Pavlikec, and all our chaperones for making it a great day!

Field Day Date Change

Due to all the rain this week, Field Day has been moved to June 15.  The field is currently too wet to use.  Think sunny thoughts!

Reminder

Tide Pool Field Trip Tomorrow!!

Please remember to apply sunblock at home before your child comes to school.  Your child will need a bag lunch and a drink.  Please make sure that your child wears long pants, sneakers, and a long sleeve shirt.  For safety reasons, ABSOLUTELY NO SHORTS OR SANDALS.

If you are a chaperone, please be at the school by 8:15 so you can arrange carpools with other parents/grandparents.  We will be leaving at 8:30.

Animal Projects

The animal projects came out great! The models students created at home were so impressive! Kids are now presenting their models and reading their informative texts to the class.  Have your child read you their book when they bring it home.

Reminder

No homework this week so that families have time to work on the animal model.
