Newsletter 12 [6/8/2012]
Dear Families,
Third grade is almost done. It sort of sneaks up on me every year. But we're ending with some great things.
Field Trips and CBA
Thanks to everyone for all the support and help to make the field trips a success. I think all the students (and many of the adults) learned lots about this area and its history. A special thanks to Don Mason for guiding us at the museum and the Franklin mine. We appreciate his expertise, and how he keeps it interesting for all.
Students are using what they learned to write their Classroom Based Assessments on city history.
Spirit Week
Next week we are again lucky to be having Jim Valley come to our school and provide some extra music for us. This is always a treat, and his web site is http://www.rainbowplanet.com/.
To go along with that, each day will have a theme:
Monday, June 11th—School Color Day (Red/Black)
Tuesday, June 12th—Hat Day
Wednesday, June 13th—Wacky Wednesday (wacky hair/clothes)
Thursday, June 14th—Red, White and Blue Day (the 14th is also Flag Day)
Friday, June 15th—Sports Day (this is field day)
Summer birthdays
If any of the students with summer birthdays want to pick a day to bring in treats/celebrate with the class, just let me know and we'll make it happen on one of these upcoming final days.
Sincerely,
Jeff
