Wow! The year is quickly winding down!

Last Friday
Last Friday was a very eventful day with Hats on for Community Service, Tiger Pride Assembly, and of course the East Extravaganza! Thank you to all of you that came out to support our school!
Walking Field Trip
We will be walking to the High School on Wednesday, May 6th to see a production by the theater department. Please make sure to have your child wear tennis shoes on this day and dress for the weather
Field Day
Field Day is on Tuesday, May 12 (rain date of the 19th). Here are a few thoughts and reminders:
*Wear tennis shoes and play clothes.
*Our time is 9:00-11:00
*Bring a jacket if the morning is chilly.
*You can send a change of clothes if you think your child might like the water games :)
*Let me know if you would like Coach Wise to put you to work. She does still need volunteers!
*We will have a picnic lunch, so each child needs to bring a lunch and a drink from home.
*Think about applying sunscreen before you send your child to school.

Banana Split Math
Our banana split addition tests are going very well. So far we have earned: a bowl, a spoon, a banana, and sprinkles. We took our test for the first scoop of ice cream today (I haven’t had a chance to check them yet).

If you would like to help out with supplies, just let me know. So far, I have cherries and sprinkles donated. We will be eating our banana splits during the last week of school.

Reading Celebration
Our goal is to have 1 more reading goal celebration before the end of the year. We need 220 more books (or 22 more reading records) to meet this goal. Please keep reading at home!


Ask your child about:

Picture walks and connections, “What a Shame!”, subtraction strategies, and animal and plant habitats.
