Week of May 6th Update

Good afternoon parents,

I hope you all have had a great week! I am so proud of how hard the kids worked on the Milestone test this week! They remained focused and I know they all tried their very best.

Next week in…

• Reading: We will continue reading the book Stone Fox in class.
• Word Work: We will review grammar concepts that have been discussed this year.
• Writing: Students will continue to work on building their writing stamina.

Reminders:

• As the end of the year is approaching, I wanted to offer a group order for Scholastic books! With summer comes extra time that students have, and as a teacher I would love to see students reading frequently! I would encourage you to buy some books that your child would be interested in reading over the summer. Our class code is Q79JX. I will submit the order THIS MONDAY, May 6^th, so have your orders in by 8AM on Monday.
• Students will take the math Milestone tests on Monday and Tuesday. Please make sure your child arrives to school on time and has eaten a healthy breakfast. They are almost finished!
• Field Day is on Thursday. If you would like to come, we will begin in the gym at 8:45 for our kick off. Please have students wear their class t-shirt, tennis shoes, and sunscreen. They may also bring water bottles that they are responsible for keeping up with on Field Day. I would also have them bring a change of clothes in case they get a little wet!
• All 25 Book Reviews for our 25 Book Challenge are due on May 14^th. Please ask your child for an update on their progress with this challenge. I would love to see all of my students at the celebration!!!
• Our end of the year party will be on May 17^th. There will be more information on this in the coming days. Stay tuned!
• Please check ParentVue for your child’s progress report grades. If you have questions, please let me or Mrs. Philp know.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
