April 30th

Hello Everyone! Due to the ERB testing, there will be no homework, no new vocabulary words, or spelling test this week. The students are thrilled about that! I have asked them to keep practicing their multiplication/division facts at home as well as get a good night's sleep. Of course, I always encourage them to read, read, read! School News: This is a letter from the PE department about Splash Day: We will be hosting the Lower Division Splash Day on Friday, May 18, 2012. The event is scheduled during each grade’s normal PE period and will last approximately 30 minutes. Splash Day consists of a variety of safe and fun water games and toys. Activities are designed to soak, spray, and splash. Students will not be swimming or submerging themselves in water. Participants are sure to enjoy the large inflatable water slide again this year. A dry area, “The Beach,” will be available to any students not wishing to get wet or participate in Splash Day. Equipment, games, activities and supervision will be present for those students playing on The Beach. What to bring/wear: • Wear appropriate swimwear to school under the school uniform. Please keep in mind each child must wear their regular school uniform at all times except during their PE period. • Sunscreen and/or hat • Towel Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns. Wishing you all a wonderful week! Ms. Mitchell
