Week 35 Newsletter

Dear Parents,

Aren't you impressed with the play?!  I was!!!  My  jaw dropped in amazement because all the times we practiced, it never looked as great as they performed.  Your kids do not disappoint!!  We pulled through and made it happen. A M A Z I N G!!!

This week we are focusing on Community Helpers.  Who are the people in our community? What do they do?  How are we a community helper?  Who are volunteers?

In math, we are doing measurement and review of previous lessons.  We are measuring using objects... for example, how many squares long is the book; rather than inches, feet, etc.

Our Religion focus is still Mary our Mother.  Please practice the Hail Mary with your child.  They will be tested beginning next week.

We are planning the end of the year picnic for June 9.  More details to come as we organize the event.  This is a joint event with Kindergarten.

We still have to practice and review before the end of the year, please encourage your child, especially those with older siblings, that the school year is not yet over.  Please remind them to focus and to continue to follow the rules.  I have noticed this week that we are a bit more excited and chatty.  Also, just a friendly reminder.. absolutely no toys!  I have told the children not to bring toys to school and asked them to put them in their bags.  Even though they are in their bags, they become a temptation.  I do ask that you check your child's bag and even pockets to make sure these objects don't make it to school.  It is acceptable to bring an item that will help your child with school.  However, if this is the case, we have already discussed this in a conference. 

HOPE FOOD DRIVE COLLECTION is tomorrow.  We forgot to send the small bags... but I still encourage you to bring food to school tomorrow :)

Thanks for everything!

Mrs. Paragas
