The Home Stretch
We are beginning to wrap things up this week and next. It doesn't seem possible that the end of the year is this close. But, it is, and so we plug away.
This week is very simple. On Monday, we will focus on our Social Studies Test, and on learning a little about Steamboat Arabia prior to our trip. We will also begin NWEA testing. For the rest of the week, we will begin a new (and final) unit in Social Studies, complete reading DRA testing, NWEA testing, and finish up Literature Circles. As everything comes to an end, we still have a fun week of learning next week that will hopefully keep students in school mode!
Of course, our field trip is tomorrow. Most parents will be attending, and a reminder note will go home today. (Hopefully...if their cubbies are cleaned out!) We will leave at 8:30, so please be sure you are here by 8:20 if you are attending. Also, bring a lunch. All disposable isn't important, but convenient. Please make sure all drinks have a lid. SOOOO excited!
I want to say how impressed I am with the 4th graders and their presentation for the Wax Museum on Friday. I know I am kind of sappy, but I was glowing all afternoon on Friday, and Saturday. I bragged about our kids to anyone who would listen! I know that you parents played a huge role in helping them to prepare for the museum, so I thank you. What a way to end the week with a bang!
As a quick reminder, next Friday, May 23, we will dismiss at 1:00 for anyone hoping to travel over the memorial day weekend.
