This will be the last week for our Take Home
Reading program. Your children's reading skills have certainly
improved due to your home practice and then rereading the books at school to
students in other classes. With the end of the school year approaching
we have many other demands on our limited time, including end of the
year tests, graduation practice and Mother's Day crafts. Please continue
to read with your child at home. I'm sure they'd love a trip to the
Kenmore Library to choose their own books to read. Please return all
books on Friday.
The children may
bring one item beginning with letter U for Show and Tell on Thursday.
The sentence dictation homework paper will be due on Friday.
We will also have Upside Down Day on Friday. Try to think of
something your child can wear upside down (a badge or button is an easy
idea).
Snacks this week
will be provided by Jazlyn, Isabel, Stevie, Ricky and Camryn. Next
week's snacks will be brought in by Victoria and Abby. Thank
you! If you didn't remember to send your child's snack when he/she was
scheduled you may still send it in any day.
We have 2
important dates to save. Room 4 will have a Kindergarten Graduation on
Thursday, May 29 at 1:30 in the afternoon; please try to attend. I'm
also hoping to have a picnic (our End of the Year Celebration) at
Chestnut Ridge Park on Monday, June 2.
We will
need parent helpers and drivers for this so I'm sending a more
detailed note asking for you help with this event.
We had our Writing
Test last week and we'll get the scores before school is out. They are
doing much better with leaving spaces between
words! The sentences to practice this week for dictation are:
Can you play ball?
Come and get the pan.
I will be
attending an inservice on Thursday so a substitute will be in the
classroom.
