We had some special guests in our class today! We were lucky enough to have some animals from the zoo visit us through their Classroom Outreach Program. Kulr 8 News also stopped by to see the presentation. Be sure to check it out online.
Thank you to those who have donated to the Boeckel family. I know there is a booth set-up outside of Kay Jewelers in the mall if you would like to send any additional cards, gifts, etc. We are still collecting money at our school. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
Friday, May 22 at 1:15 is our Barnyard Moo-sical. They have be practicing all week and it's going to be a great performance!
Please return your child's field trip permission slip. Your child will not be able to go if it is not returned.
We are missing a few Lead 21 books. Please take a look around your house and return them if they happen to be there. We are missing the following titles:
A Look at Water Habitats
My Day with Rocks
Window Shopping
Why the Sky is So Far Away
Shop with Mom
We will be continuing to assess reading levels this week. I was hoping to be done, but WOW there are some excellent readers in first grade and it is taking longer than I expected.
We got a little behind in math this week. This week we will be finishing up measurement and beginning our end of the year math assessments.

Almost there!
Permission slips for our end of the year field trip went home in your child's green folder last week. Please complete them and return ASAP.
If you are planning to attend the BBQ on May 14 please return your form and payment by May 12.
We will not be having anymore spelling tests this year. We will work on high frequency words.
This week we will be completing our last reading assessment. I am looking forward to seeing the growth in reading levels. We had some very hard workers this quarter and I know many students improved their reading level!
In math, we will be working on measurement and wrapping up telling time. We will also try to squeeze a few assessments in.
Take care! This is a busy time of the year, so thanks in advance for all that you do!

It's May!!
Mark you calendars!
May 28-Field Trip to Riverfront Park-9:30-1:30- We will be exploring the pond habitat and playing outdoor games. Would you like to help? I still need 2 volunteers to meet us at Riverfront Park this day. Unfortunately, siblings and other children may not come. It is a great trip and the kids love it!
May 29- Field day- This is a fun morning for K-3 with a lot of outdoor games. Would you like to volunteer to take our first grade class around to each game? It will be from 9:20-10:50. We could always use more volunteers for this event! However, siblings and non-school age kids are not allowed to come with you since you will be supervising our little firsties.
We will be doing our AIMSWeb reading and math assessments this week. Please make sure your kids gets plenty of rest and has a good breakfast before coming to school this week. Assessments are much tougher for hungry and tired kids.
This is our last week of Lead 21. We will be wrapping up our unit about habitats. This is also our last week of spelling. Please be sure to help your child study each night.
In math we will be learning how to tell time to the hour and half hour.
Thank you to the parents who sent snack. We now have enough to make it through the year.
Please make sure to pay any negative balances on your child's lunch account. The lunchroom will not accept any more lunch charges after May 1st. So please make sure you child has money in their account.
