April 3 - 7

 

                                                happy april

Paraprofessional Appreciation Week is this week! Please have your children make a card for Mr. O & Ms. Jen. Any other sweet treats or small gifts are welcome. They both do so much for our class every day!

For those of you who are interested in having your child work on math at home, last week we covered unit 6/lessons 15-19 on division. This week we will be covering unit 6/lessons 20-24. Practice using the IXL textbook would be beneficial to understanding this new concept of dividing large numbers and interpreting remainders.

Please send kids with boots or a change of shoes for muddy days at recess. The boots/shoes can stay in student lockers so they don't have to bring them back & forth each day. 

Our student council Coins for Community fundraiser begins this week. Students are encouraged to bring in any loose change they can donate to support our community. 

Sarett Field Trip: We will be going to Sarett Nature Center on Thursday, April 27th from 10:30-12:00. We will have a snack at school before we go and will be back in time for lunch. Students will explore the 4 different ecosystems that we have in Michigan. Everybody needs to dress for the weather and hiking. Parents are welcome to meet us there and join our hike!

                                                         Conferences are this week! Please click  here  to check your day & time. The kids have been working hard to complete their slides to present at the conferences. Due to the short time we have together & the length of the slides, I will most likely have you finish up your conference with your child in the hallway after our time is up. Last year the kids could finish at home, but with the Chromebooks staying here, that gets a little tricky. I will set up a desk with some chairs. Thanks for understanding! Laps for Lincoln kicked off this week! Our PTO generously donated shirts and has been busy counting all the donations. We are hopeful for another great turnout this year! Thank you! Hope to see you  at the big event  on Friday from 5:00-7:00!! We are wrapping up o...

                                                         This week begins the student council stuff-a-truck food donation collection.  Students are encouraged to bring any non-perishable food items to school each day. For a friendly competition, there will be a pizza party for the lower & upper el classes with the most donations. Thanks for your help in supporting our community! The Winn Dixie movie reward was a huge success! During the movie, kids were naturally comparing the movie to the book. It was fantastic to hear that the book was better and had more details! We enjoyed popcorn, pickles, Dump punch, and root beer & strawberry candy. Thanks to those who sent in items & thanks to Maggie for making & serving the punch! Since Friday is a half day and the end of the 1st trimester, we will have a read-in to celebrate all o...
