Happy Mother’s Day to all of our Moms! Hope you have a wonderful day today!

It’s hard to believe that we are in May already! Only 4 and a half weeks to go! Things are going to pick up and fly by with record speed from now until June 9!

Some dates to note:
Just Write Celebration – May 17th from 9:00-9:40 a.m.
Memorial Day – May 30th, No School
Field Day – June 8th
Doughnut Day & Dress Like an Athlete Day – June 8th

Last Day – June 9th, Dismissal at 1:00

We have several academic goals to reach before our last day.  We will be doing a unit on MEAP test taking, learning strategies for reading and taking the test.  In science, we will finish up our plant unit and follow that with a final social studies unit on Hudsonville.  In computers, we will have a two week keyboarding session in which Mrs. Ploeg will be teaching us proper positioning for our fingers.  Readers’ and Writers’ Workshops will continue and we will be polishing up our final work in both of those areas.

Parents, if any of you are interested in providing tutoring for your student over the summer months, please just send me a note and I will email you names and phone numbers of available tutors.

It is such an honor and a privilege to work with your students!  This will be a great finish to a really wonderful school year!

Love, Mrs. Q
