Due to the short weeks to come, today’s Spelling Test will be our last list of the school year! I can’t believe it! The end is coming way too fast! We have other things to accomplish yet this year and I have decided not to continue formal Spelling lists!

Thank you for the supplies that you brought in for our “Let’s Eat Worms” activity today.

A messy, sticky and Great time was had by all. We only spilled two cups full on the floor. Thank goodness for our wonderful janitors!

I have finally booked our May fieldtrip. Both Kindergarten classes and the Grade Ones will be going to Spencer Bounce Zone and Island farms on Thursday, May 24, 2012. We will be staggering our times as all of the children cannot go to the Bounce Zone at the same time. The Grade Ones will be going to Island Farms first and then the Bounce Zone. I will be sending the fieldtrip forms home today. It will be a casual day for the students. Any parents who wish to join us, are more than welcome!

Just a reminder that our annual spring concert will be held on Tuesday, May 15th at 7pm. Students should go to their classrooms at 6:45pm to line up and get ready to go on stage. In order to look as good as we can, students should come in their Full Dress Uniform.

Just a reminder that we will be doing our Let’s Eat Worms activity on Tuesday, May 15th and each student has something to bring to add to our activity. If you have any questions, let me know!

I will introduce the lists on Monday, May 14th and test the lists on Friday, May 18th.

List #1 ( j2) side, outside, inside, oil, hard, from, noon, most, hang, cast, line, post, arm, skin, ship, here, sun, age, cover, mine

List #2 (k6) freedom, pound, stick, gift, class, afternoon, horse, hero, brother, wife, club, goose, loaf, knife, ear, week, title, stamp, glass, set

Thank you so much for all of the cans and money that you sent to support the Salvation Army! I was so impressed! The kids were so excited and they came back to the classroom with lots of food and junk food!

As the weather gets warmer, I have noticed that non – uniform items are being worn at school. Please ensure that only uniform items are worn at school. Here are some reminders:

Socks should be navy blue or white.
Shoes should be solid black or solid white.
Pants and shorts should be purchased from Neat Uniforms.

Full uniform Wednesdays are still in effect and shorts are not to be worn on Full Uniform day. If you have any questions, let me know!

I have had a number of parents come in looking for missing sweaters and Planners. Could you check the labels on the sweaters that have made their way to your home and make sure that they belong to you. Also, could you take a look at the names on the Planners that have come home! If you could send any Planners and sweaters back to school that do not belong to you, that would make other parents very happy!

As you know, we are learning about our worm farm in our lifecycle animal unit for Science. We would like to do an activity where we recreate a worm habitat using food. If we each contribute an item towards this fun project, it will help to keep the cost down. I have stapled a food item in each Planner. If you could send the food item, in the morning on Tuesday, May 15, that would be great! Any questions, let me know!
