Fluency for Homework this Week

 Several students came to me this morning to ask me about the Word Wall Words.  I have decided to NOT have the students complete the questions this week.  Instead, I have changed the chart on the front of the paper so that students have the 1st, 2nd and 3rd try spots.  (See example below)I told students that anyone who wants to do the questions can get extra credit points on their spelling test.

Bear Brook Field Trip

This field trip form was sent home with students yesterday!   Unfortunately, we are unable to take chaperones but there is no cost for this field trip.  This field trip will be rain or shine and will take place in the "woods" of Bear Brook.  Students MUST wear sneakers or other appropriate shoes (that can and will get dirty).  Students should wear weather appropriate clothing and wear sunscreen and bug spray.  I will pack additional bug spray to keep with us in case.  Please return the authorization form attached.  Students will also need to pack a bag lunch, water bottle (plastic, labeled), and snacks. 

This trip is scheduled for our class on Monday, May 22, 2017.

Tie Dye T-Shirts

        It's almost that time of year when students will be tie-dying their shirts for Field Day!  We will be tie-dying on Friday, May 26 at 1:50 pm.   We will be looking for volunteers to help with tie-dying as well as a volunteer who is willing to wash and dry the shirts.  Information will go home about this soon!  

Note from the Library

Positive T-Shirt

As part of our third week of SBAC testing, students wore positive t-shirts to remind them to stay positive during testing.  Here are a few of the positive messages students wore.
