This week (Tuesday, May 10) we will go on our field trip to Inner Space Caverns! Please remember to wear close-toed shoes - tennis shoes are the best for walking in the cave. Don't forget your sack lunch! There is a gift shop that students may visit after the tour if they have brought money with them.
We will have our final spelling test this week - you will get your words on Monday and you will have spelling homework as well. Remember to study for the trial spelling test which will be on Wednesday!
In History, we will learn about the fall of Egypt to Rome, including the life of the famous Cleopatra who was Greek but ruled as an Egyptian. In Bible, we will continue to write and illustrate prayers in our Prayer Book.
We will write more poetry ("I Am") and enjoy Shel Silverstein's wild and crazy poems. We will also write a friendly letter.
In Superkids, we are finishing up the book and workbook. We have peeked ahead and are relieved that Golly has been found safe and sound! We will take the final end-of-unit assessment.
Parents, I am available for end-of-year conferences at your convenience. Although the school has not yet received the final Iowa test scores, I can share the results of the latest Development Reading Assessment that Ms. Winegar completed during April. Please email me if you would like to have a conference and we will schedule it.
Big events are filling up the calendar here at the end of the school year - the CCS program is Thursday, May 12. It will be an awesome event!
Last week (Teacher Appreciation Week), we were totally spoiled by all of the treats and surprises! Flowers, school supplies, yummy food, gifts...thank you all so much for your kindness and support! It is an honor and privilege to be a teacher at Christ Church School.
