Dear Parents,
Week at a Glance

This week in religion we continued learning about the books of the Bible. We learned the second set of books in the New Testament for memory. In language we are writing sentences from prompts and learning how to add suffixes to verbs. Our reading lessons are about words with the long “o” sound spelled with the silent “e” rule. During math we are adding two digit numbers together and working with place value. Our social studies lessons are about citizenship and ways that we can be good citizens. We are practicing our presentations for science fair this week during our science time. For handwriting we are writing the letter “g”. In choir we are practicing our music for Fine Arts Night.

Science Fair

Our students have been hard at work on their Science Fair Projects.  We look forward to seeing their project at the Science Fair on May 1st. We will have one evening where parents and family can see and hear the projects. The students will arrive at 6:20 pm and stand by their project until 7:15 pm. From 6:30 – 7:15 pm, the students will present their projects to guests. At 7:15 pm, the students will be dismissed to their parents, and as a family, you can walk around and see other projects. At 7:30 pm, projects will go home with the students. Students must wear uniforms.

If your student is bringing materials or results to support their presentation those items should be brought in on April 29th.

Fine Arts Night

We are excited about the opportunity to showcase our Arts department.  Our music directors have worked with the students all year on music theory, rhythm, and voice.  During the evening, each choir will be performing.  Our bands and recorders, directed by Mrs. Eckhoff, will also perform.  Mrs. Bird’s art class projects will be displayed around the building; families will be invited to an Open House where they can enjoy the art projects done by the students. 

Students will arrive at 6:15 pm and meet their teacher in their classroom. After the music performance, students return to their classrooms; parents pick them up.  

Students in Kindergarten – 2nd grade are to wear their Sunday best. There will be a cookie reception after the program in the commons. 

In addition, we will also have a Silent Auction with the class art projects.  You can start bidding on them on April 25th.
