Week of April 5th

This is a big week for us in our classroom. We will be presenting our woodlands and our woodland animal reports on Thursday. We are working hard to get our reports finished and published and ready to go for Thursday.

I heard back from about half of the families and almost everyone preferred the evening time for our woodlands presentation. We did have a couple families who preferred the day time, so we're going to present twice on Thursday.

We will be presenting at 6:00 pm on Thursday, April 8th. Our 5th grade buddies will be coming for a special presentation the same day at 3:20pm. If you are unable to attend the 6:00pm presentation, you are welcome to come to the presentation with our buddies. Both presentations will be held in our classroom, and all family members are invited to come. Look for an invitation made by your child in their blue folder today.

As part of finishing up our woodlands we are in need of some woodland animals to add to the landscape we have already created. I will be sending home a list of woodland animals in student blue folders today. If students have any stuffed animals that are on the list they are asked to bring them to school starting tomorrow (April 6) to add to our woodlands. If possible, please put student names on the stuffed animals.

We will have homework on Wednesday night only this week. This is largely due to the fact that we'll be here presenting on Thursday night and that we'll be spending a lot of class time this week to do our final preparations for our presentation.

We will check-out books on Friday of this week.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on Thursday, April 8th, at 3:20pm or 6:00 pm.
