Dear Families,
The Lord gave me the great responsibility and awesome privilege of guiding your precious children this year. They have been blessed with tremendous growth both academically and spiritually. Thank you for entrusting me with your children……and, what a wonderful year we have had. God has truly blessed our time together. I want to thank all of you for your tremendous help and support this year.
Although we all are so happy that summer is here, with a change of pace, Friday will definitely be bittersweet and emotional, our final goodbyes for the summer!!!
THANK YOU– . Thank you to the Poplins for hosting our swim party.. We so appreciate it. It will be a wonderful time together. Also, thanks to all who are bringing items for our yummy lunch. Bless You!!!!
NO PARENT HELPERS – We will not be using any parent helpers this week. Thanks for all you have done throughout the year to help us in the classroom. We couldn’t have done it without you.
YEARBOOK SIGNING – The children will receive their Memory Books on Thursday, May 22nd, after first recess. Please send a ball point pen with your child for an autograph signing time. We will open up the doors and the children will be able to go to other classrooms as well. The pages are glossy, so a marker pen does not work well without smearing.. The kids may also bring their book back on Fri. to sign at recess. This is always a very enjoyable time.
MUFFIN AND JUICE MORNING – To make the last morning of our school year special, we are going to share muffins and juice on Friday. It will be lots of fun!!
LANGUAGE ARTS – We will be sharing favorite stories with “book buddies” this week. These will be buddies from our own class. If you have not already turned in all of the reading materials from home, please do so ASAP. This will include the blue, brown or green Anthology. A few still have library books that need to be returned.
MATH – We will continue with our unit on Measuring.
SHOW AND TELL – This week will be both Teams A & B. Your child can show twice during the week.
AWARDS CHAPEL – Please plan on joining us for our Awards Ceremony. All of the children will be getting a character trait and some, physical fitness awards. It will be in the GL Johnson Chapel at 12:45 PM Wednesday, May 21st..
CLEAN-UP – We will be cleaning out our cubbies on Thursday and bringing home lots of things, including our buckets.. Please send a large paper bag for all of these items.
LOST AND FOUND – Please check the Lost and Found for any items that might belong to your child. However, I am very proud of the children, as in January we made the resolution to not leave any coats, sweaters or sweatshirts in our classroom overnight. They have done a wonderful job, but check for lunch boxes or backpacks that might have been left and gathered up in the carpool area. All unclaimed items will be donated to charity.
