5/20

Thank you to everyone who sent in party items and/or came and helped!  We had a nice celebration to begin winding down our school year.

Please remember that Wednesday is the last day of school and is an early release day.  Dismissal will be around 11:30.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and all our little turkeys!  I hope that you have a safe and blessed holiday.  Thank you for entrusting your precious children to my care.  They are a blessing!

11/23

Thank you very much to Mrs. Pandolph, Mrs. Ortiz, and Mr. Hussion for helping with our craft day today!  I think it was a huge success, and I literally could not have done it without our volunteers.

Tomorrow is a regular (full) day.  Some have asked about it being a half day, but we are scheduled to go the entire day.  Have a blessed and happy Thanksgiving break Wed.-Sun.

Veterans Wall of Fame

We are creating a Veterans Wall of Fame in the downstairs hall, and we encourage students to bring in a picture of a veteran they know (if they would like).  Please include the name of the veteran, the branch of service, and time or war of service if known.  Please also include the student's name and our class code HD5 so that pictures can be returned at the end of the month.  Thank you!

12/17

Today has been an awesome day!  First, we started the day by earning our 100th star!  This is huge news for the kids!!!!  It means that they have been very well behaved and have now earned a reward party.  We discussed the sensibility of having it AFTER the break, so we have scheduled it for the Wed. when we return (1/7).  I will be in touch with several of you to see if you are able to help out for that.  Thank you in advance!

Our class party was lots of fun with lots of great goodies!  Thank you to everyone who sent in goodies (and to those volunteers who are being recruited for the next one instead).  Your kindness and generosity are duly noted and so greatly appreciated.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the sweet notes, cards, and gifts that I have received.  I told the class that they themselves are truly the best gift: they come to school wanting to learn, willing to try, and bring a good attitude too.  It doesn't get any better than that!

Tomorrow is our PJ day (NOT Friday).  We will be taking our review spelling & vocabulary tests tomorrow too! 

Friday is "tacky sweater" day and also a half day.  Buses will begin dismissing at the Primary School at 11:30 and then we will begin soon thereafter.

Happy Thanksgiving!

First, thank you to our helpers today!  Craft day was a huge success thanks to Lawson, James, and Joseph sharing their moms with us and for snacks from Emma P., Emily F., & James!

I wish each of you a blessed Thanksgiving.  I am very grateful for my students and their families.  Enjoy your time off and stay safe!

Veterans Day Assembly

Today we honored our country's veterans with a special ceremony in the stadium.  Thank you to all the men and women who have served our country!

We were also privileged to have a visit from our very own veteran, Hunter's Dad.  He shared how he joined the military, his branches of service, and some of his experiences.

Thank you!

Thank you for all of your help to make Mr. Traquair's last day with us a very special one!  We will miss him!

12/18

Thank you so very much for your generosity this holiday season!  The holiday presentations have been so interesting.  Our party was a huge success.  Thank you!

Our science test will be Friday instead of tomorrow.  Sp/vocab choices are due tomorrow.  The tales Venn diagram genre project is due on Friday.  We will be taking our reading, spelling, and vocab tests then too.

Happy Valentine's Day!
