Hello Parents and Students,
This week we are finishing the Storytelling Unit. The last story is about two little girls who visit their aunt. She tells them stories about her hats. I was in a play called Crowns. It is about a young girl who goes to live in the south with her grandmother because she gets in a little trouble at home in the north. The young girl then meets her grandmother's friends and they tell stories of the hats they wear. I would like to show the class the DVD of this performance. With your permission, I could bring it in one day next week to show.
In math, we will begin Unit 10. We also may finish the entire book before the end of the school year. That's exciting!
Unfortunately some of the Wisconsin Fast Plants wilted over the weekend. There wasn't enough water in one of the irrigation stations. Fortunately, we have extras that are still growing that we have transplanted into the quads of the students whose plants have wilted.
Students are continuing to work on the culture reports. Some students are ready to begin their culture kit. I am asking that each child bring a shoebox to school so they can begin working on decorating and adding items to their kit.
Our next book genre will be Fairy Tales/Myths, legends, etc. The book report will be due the week of Memorial Day weekend, May 31st - June 3rd. Please make sure your child has a book.
If you have overdue library books, please send them in by the last week of school. I will not be allowed to give you the report card with overdue library books or lunch balances. Please remember to take care of this.
I will announce the names of the children that took the no television challenge
tomorrow (May 3).
If you have any magazines that you are done reading, please recycle them by sending them to class. Each student is writing a story book, and they need pictures.
Thank you for signing the homework packet this week.
Ms. Lyles
