Dear Parents,

Week at a Glance

In religion this week we are learning about the books of the Bible. For memory we learned the names of the first several books in the New Testament. In science we are typing up notes from the science fair experiment process and putting together triboards. Our reading lessons are about apostrophes, writing contractions, and different genres of stories. Our current math unit is on adding two digit numbers together. In social studies we are beginning a new unit on citizenship. Our handwriting lesson this week is a review of the letters ‘c,’ ‘e,’ and ‘f.’ This week in language we are adding details to sentences written in response to sentence prompts.

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.

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.
