Last Book Order of the Year!

The last book order of the year is coming home today - yes, we are ALREADY there in the year.  With Memorial Day weekend just right around the corner, the end of the year really snuck up on me this year!  :)  This last book order is a great chance to order some books to keep your student motivated to read, read, READ, all summer long and avoid the dredded "summer slump" where all the progress made during the school year fades away on the long summer months.  The book orders will be due Tuesday, May 28th!

We had MAP testing today (the last of the school year unless you have to do make up testing) and the kids did a great job!  Way to end the testing year strong!

Also, this Thursday is our field trip to Golden Gardens for our ecosystems walk during low tide and to interact with the tide pools.  Right now we only have 2 chaperones signed up and we need AT LEAST 5 in order to go.  Unless we get some more by Thursday, the chaperones who have signed up will take their groups with the other 4th grade class and the rest of us will have to stay behind since there isn't enough supervision, especially in nice weather on the beach.  Please consider volunteering for this field trip since we really need your support.  I would hate for all of our planning to go to waste with a lack of adults signing up!  Please send a note with your student or an email to me ASAP if you're interested and available for chaperoning.  Thanks!
