With the end of the year drawing closer we have changes to our schedule which includes field trips and testing days. Please check your child's folder each night for reminders that may come home. This week I did our final round of DIBELS benchmark testing. I am very proud of everyone's reading progress this year. Please continue to read with your child over the summer and encourage them to practice the various comprehension strategies they learned this year. Next week I will give them their final Lead 21 benchmark assessment and next week will also be our final week for word study. The final list will come home today. They are learning about plurals this week.
Next Wednesday is Cadets for a Cause. We will walk over to the high school to enjoy some fun activities before the big walk. Students will eat school sack lunches that day. Please do not send a sack lunch with your child that day. As part of the day’s activities, we will be doing a food drive to benefit the Howard County Food Pantry. “Admission” to the football stadium for the Cadets for
a Cause event will be 1 non-perishable canned good or personal products that are needed
for the food pantry. The following is a list of personal products that are needed by the food pantry, as well as any non-perishable canned goods.
dish soap
bar soap
shampoo
toilet paper
tuna
peanut butter
cake mix
cookie mix
macaroni and cheese boxes
paper towels
pancake mix
syrup
toothpaste
brownie mix
Thanks to those who volunteered to go on the field trip to Lake Meyer. I will send home a note about this trip next week. Since it is only to Calmar we will not be taking charter buses on this trip. If anyone is still wanting to volunteer to swim with us at the fitness center please contact me. Once again, we swim on Wednesday the 16th. I would need parents from about 12:35 - 1:40.
I hope everyone has a great weekend! Enjoy the warm weather!
