Important Details for Parc Day!

Hello Parents!

I am so happy to report that our community came together to raise over $12, 000.00!!!! Mrs. Matthews Advocacy shattered our goal of $20/student. We raised nearly $50/student. Thank you all so much for coming together and cheering your kiddos on. They worked so hard! As a reward we will get to celebrate with a jumpy castle, water obstacle course, and foam party!

Hello All! 
This week we continue our research and writing in preparation for our Dinosaur Museum Night. We will be using all of the reading and writing skills we have gained so far this year to teach you everything we know about Dinosaurs. We will focus on important vocabulary, spelling, and sentence structure. We are really excited to show you everything we have learned this year! For more information please look for updates on your Student's Advocacy page. 

CANCELLED - Bike and Walk to School Day 5/8/19

UPDATE: All morning activities have been cancelled due to weather and visibility concerns. 
Thanks! 

Dinosaur Palooza! 5/6/19

Our field trip is TOMORROW!

 

Tomorrow we will be heading to the Morrison Dinosaur museum. This field trip is kick starting our end of the year cumulative project about Dinosaurs!

A couple reminders:

  1. Wear Purple!
  2. Bring a disposable lunch. Please pack your snack(s) SEPARATE in your child’s backpack. Please DO NOT send the Pizza Lunchables. They take a considerable amount of time for kinders to assemble and can be very messy. Thanks you for understanding! :) 
  3. We will be leaving around 9:15 so please make sure you aren’t late to school. We should be back around 1pm.
  4. Half day pickup will be at 1pm in our normal spot. Full day kids will have normal pick up.

If you didn’t receive an email from me asking you to be a chaperone, that means someone else was picked!

 

Please reach out with any questions!

Edlio Glitch!

Hello Parents, 
Yesterday there were a few posts from earlier in the year that seemed to "re-post" to a few of our classes. This may have caused some confusion. I apologize and we are working to remedy the problem. 
Thanks! 
 

Super Kids 4/22/19

Hello Parents! 
This week we will wrap up our final days of opinion writing and disagreeing politely. Students will share their opinion piece with a peer and compare their opinions while using strategies to disagree. We will continue learning about vowel teams such as /ea/ /ee/ /ou/ and /ai/ and /ay/. 

Super Kids 4/15/19

Hello Parents! 
This week we will be learning all about the vowel team /ee/ and /ea/. We will search for the vowel pattern in our reading and writing and focus on spelling words with these patterns correctly. We will wrap up opinion writing and non-fiction reading with a final opinion writing peace. We will focus on public speaking and presenting skills as well as how to politely disagree. We will also begin our Spring PALS assessment this week.
