Week of May 28, 2012


Week of May 28, 2012


Dear Parents,

THANK YOU: Thank you to Heather Akoubian and her helpers for hosting our Vegetable Party. The children ate very well and many of them were surprised they LIKED some veggies they had never tried before. We appreciate all the parents who sent in food and supplies also.


THANK YOU: Thank you to all the parents who sent in flowers for Teacher Appreciation Week. They were all beautiful and I enjoyed them all week!  Having lunch brought in on Wednesday was a real treat for me!

I appreciate your thoughtfulness and generosity.


ANIMAL ALPHABET PLAY: Our play is THIS FRIDAY! On the day of the play you will need to bring your child in costume at 7:50. You and your guests may return later for our 9:00 performance which will be in Mrs. Andrew’s room. (2 doors down from ours.) After the performance we will have light refreshments in our “back yard.”  Please let Heather Akoubian know how many guests you will be bringing so she can determine the amount of food needed if you have not done so already. If you have borrowed a costume from me please have your child change into their own clothes BEFORE eating. They do not need to change if it is your own costume. You may take your child home after having refreshments if you like. If you have to return to work, and need Stay Care, which will open at 12:00 that day, I will keep your child with me. Please tell me before you leave if they will be staying. Also, I ask that the Dads fold up the chairs and stack them outside the front classroom door and bring the tables back into the classroom. Mr. Duchene, our maintenance man would appreciate it. The children are very excited about their play. We have already performed for the kindergartens and 3rd grade.


Here is an overview of the week:

        Religion: Bible stories

        Animal of the Week: Wolf, Fox, Yak and Zebra

SRA READING: We will be reviewing ending sounds and word families. I will be testing them on their sight words also.   


Please return all Library books to the classroom or Library.  Report cards will not be sent home until this is done.  If you are interested in checking out books during the summer, summer family reading passes are available in the Library, and online.

  
See you on Friday!
