Beautiful Friday

Happy Friday everyone!

We started our morning with quiet reading again before we had the chance to play Hangman or Word Scramble with a partner for one last chance to practice our spelling words for the week.

After we came in from outdoor Phys. Ed, we played a game of BINGO and read a story before recess. When we came inside, Ms. Zimmermann's class worked on math while Mr. Fisher's class went to music. When we were all together before lunch, we did our spelling test.

As today was so beautiful, we took advantage of the weather and did our quiet reading outside. When we came back to the classroom, we did some language writing. We are learning about non-fiction topics such as bats, so we are practicing descriptive writing using one main topic and 3 or more sub topics to enhance our work.


REMINDERS:

As the weather has been nice as of late, we have been having outdoor Phys. Ed.
PLEASE make sure your child has APPROPRIATE footwear (i.e. running shoes, NOT flip flops or open sandals). Proper footwear is important for safety, and students will not be allowed to participate without.

Mavericks will be selling popcorn again to finish their fundraising commitment to Free the Children starting on Monday, May 9th at LUNCH RECESS outside. They will sell every Monday until they are sold out. Popcorn is $2.00 a bag.
