We had a fabulous time in Lansing last Thursday! I hope your child learned so much and made memories he or she will never forget. If you chaperoned and have any photos from the steps of the Capitol Building, please email them to me when you get a chance. I would love to see them and share them with the other parents. A big thanks goes out to Stacey Tyburczy for washing the field trip t-shirts so they're ready for Friday's track meet!!

The track meet is Friday at the high school track from 11:30-2:30. Parents are welcome to meet us there and walk with us through the events. Students will compete in the 4 events that they have been practicing in PE. All students need to bring a water bottle to the track meet. We are in need of a wagon and a parent to pull the wagon with the students' water bottles around to the different events with us. Please email me if you are available! We are also in need of healthy snacks like string cheese, orange slices, bananas, and carrots to eat in the classroom afterward. Please let me know if you can send in any healthy foods with your child that day.  

Yearbooks went home on Friday. If you would like to order a yearbook, there are still some for sale in the office for $12, or you can order one here. Use the code YB3718. We will have a yearbook signing day for all 4th graders in June!

Dress Code: Please remember to check your child's clothing before coming to school. We have seen some shorts that are too short and inappropriate for school. Students will need to call home for a change of clothes if anything is an inappropriate length or if too much skin is showing. Thanks for your help with this!

For those of you who are interested in having your child work on math at home, last week we completed unit 7/lesson 10-12 on geometry. This week we will complete unit 7/lessons 13-17. Practice using the IXL textbook would be beneficial to understanding this new concept of lines, angles, shapes, etc. 

Kiwanis Park - We will be walking to Kiwanis on May 30th. We will be changing our lunchtime on that day so we can eat before we go. We will not be eating at the park. We plan to be there from 1:00-3:00. Parents/guardians are welcome to meet us there!

                                                         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...
