Countdown to summer begins!!!

This Friday is the 8th grade carnival. Students will need to buy tickets for the games AND food.  They usually come around to the classrooms early on Friday. $10 is the max they should need to buy.  If they run out and need more tickets, there will be some for sale at the the carnival.

There will be regular spelling this week that goes home on Tuesday, with practice test Thursday, and final test on Friday. 

There will be no other homework :)

Remember when your child is absent, they miss the work that is done that day.  Because we are so close to the end of the year, it will be difficult to make their work up( because of the time constraints).  

We will be working up to the last minute, it's not summer yet :). Work that isn't done, will be given zeros.  It's so important that your child be in school everyday.  Thank you.

The following week is a busy, but fun week too.  Wednesday 5/28 is cleaning day. Please send your child's backpack empty, so they can take all their supplies, graded work, projects etc home that day.  

I will need help that day.  We need to wrap books that have ripped covers, wash desk and chairs ( desks really need to be scrubbed because if all the tape remnants ) . I'd like to also put together summer work packets. Paper will need to be sorted, compiled and stapled.  If you still need hours, let me know :)

Thursday 5/29 is field day!! Mrs. McParland has been planning some games, and will be contacting parents to bring in snacks and sides for lunch because our main dish - hamburgers or hotdogs- will be provided by Mrs. Brockman and friends. They have been so kind and generous to do this for us for the last several years!!! We love them :). We will need help running games, providing supervision etc. please contact Mrs. McParland or I if you would be so kind to help with any of this :). I really want this to be a fun day, the kids so deserve this for all their hard work this year!!!!!

She will have a sign up sheet to take volunteers!!

As you know we have the 100 club.  The students who get 100% of their vocabulary correct will become members of the club ( don't worry I will make sure EVERY child will make the club). We will have a "Build Your Own Ice Cream Sundae" That afternoon as their reward!! We will need help and items for this event. Please contact  McParland or I if you'd like to help !! Thanks to all who continue to support and help us build these positive experiences and memories for our children :)

Friday 5/30 is our last day together :(. This is only a 2 hour day starting with Mass as a school family, and then dismissal is at 10:00. Students must be picked up at this time because there is no after school care. 

I have truly loved being your child's teacher this year!! They will forever have a place in my heart!!!
