Happy Friday! As I'm typing this I'm looking out the window and it's beautiful outside! That could only mean one thing - STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL!! I'm hoping to see a lot of you there. MANY thanks to Mrs. Bassan for coordinating our class stand and making the sign for it!


The next date to put on your calendar is Tuesday, June 8th. We would like to invite you to watch the plays we've been practicing. We're having a lot of fun with these and want to share them with you! An invitation will be coming home, but I wanted to get the word out1 We'll probably start them around 10:00. Hope you can make it!



Language Arts: We've been practicing our play parts and next week we'll be finalizing scenery and props.

Math: We're working on a fun activity with squares - 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, etc. We've paired with Mr. Clutz's class to work on this and the kids have done a fantastic job!

Writing: Porquoi stories, or Just-So stories, are stories that explain why an animal looks the way it does. We've listened to lots of examples and now each student is writing one. Everyone is excited so I should get some good stories!

Social Studies: Economics is still our unit for next week.



That's it for now! PLEASE remember that our field day is May 26th. Your child should be coming to school with sunscreen already applied, a hat, and a water bottle. We love field day!



Have a wonderful weekend!

Mrs. Humerick
