Dear Families,

Friday, April 26, 2017

Welcome Back! It sounds as though everyone had a nice and much needed week off. The students had lots of stories to share and the beautiful weather last week lended to some great outdoor activities. The weather this week however….. Not quite as nice!

We have had a wonderful week celebrating Earth week. Thank you to Mrs. Turenne for passing out the seeds for you to plant at home. We also planted some seeds in school and are looking forward to watching them grow.

The students were very good about bringing in a litter free lunch and recycling and reusing things in their lunchboxes.  They helped clean up the playground and I am happy to report there was not much trash at all to pick up and the weather did not allow us to look very much so we will do it again next week.

In Writer’s Workshop, we wrote about different topics and we wrote a description and opinion of carrots and even tried some, the students were very excited to sample them. We also wrote about what we know and about and what we like to do in rain!

Finally, we wrote about what we can do to keep our Earth healthy and green.

In math, we practice decomposing numbers into tens and ones and putting them back together again. Hopefully you had a chance to see the math papers that have been coming home. They are doing some very high level thinking in math and I am very proud of them.

Is anyone interested in taking one, some or all of the guppies? Please let me know!

Thank you in advance.

Our kindergarten graduation is set for June 22nd. This is the last day of school for all students.

I hope you have a fabulous weekend.

Sincerely,

Mrs. MacIntyre
