Dear Families,
It is difficult to believe we are at the
end of April. This year has been a whirlwind of fun and learning.
Although the end is near we still have a lot to accomplish! This first
big event happens next Thursday, May 3rd. We are hosting the
first ever Egyptian Festival. I hope everyone saw the yellow paper,
which came home last week. If not, I have attached another copy and sent it to your
email. This is our one and only homework assignment for the year.
Students are responsible for creating an interactive booth for the
festival. Please see the attachment for more information. If your child
needs help at school for this assignment please email me as soon as
possible.
In addition, we are starting the school store the
second week in May. The store will be open on Tuesday and Wednesday for
four consecutive weeks. If you can volunteer to help in the store, It
would be very much appreciated. Volunteer times would be 9:00-10:00 on
Tuesday and Wednesday. Please email me if you are interested in signing
up.
Finally, I want to compliment your children on how amazing
they have been this week. The death of a classmate is something we hope
our children and our community never need deal with. This week has
honestly been an amazing outpouring of compassion and kindness even
though we have been in the midst of the dark cloud of grief. I feel
blessed to teach your children. Keep each other safe and give plenty of
hugs. As always, if I can be of assistance in any way please contact
me.
Have a restful weekend,
~Donna
