Friday's homework: The kids were to come home and tell someone about how to tell time on an analog clock. We only have to worry about the quarter hour increments: 1:00, 1:15, 1:30, 1:45, etc. We are moving on to 3D shapes this week, so I would appreciate it if parents can help to reinforce the learning we did around time.
Shoe boxes needed: We are building dioramas this week and need about 5 more shoe boxes in order to ensure there is one for each group. If we have extras, they won't go to waste. Please help us out if you can. We cannot begin this project until we have enough boxes.
Scholastic deadline extended: I extended the deadline to Monday for Scholastic orders to accommodate any late submissions. We will likely have one more round of ordering in mid-June so parents can stock up their summer reading libraries.
Short week: Another one! Don't forget Friday is a PA day.
Save the date: We have a tentative plan for a field trip on June 14th. We will likely need some parent volunteers to join us. I'll pass the details along once I have the specifics.
So hot!: The good news is that we will have air conditioning in our upstairs classrooms next year. The bad news is that we have to endure the heat for the rest of this school year. Lightweight clothing and wicking fabrics are good options. Long sleeves and long pants would basically be torture at this point in the year.
