I hope everyone enjoyed their spring break, despite the miserable weather! Just think...all the rain will make our grass greener and the flowers more beautiful! That's the way I like to think about it.
Please join us for the 4th and 5th Grade Science Fair this Friday, April 29th from 9:15 am - 10:00 am. We look forward to seeing you there!
Have a terrific week!

Spring Break Next Week!
As we look forward to our break, we will continue work on three things that students will be finishing over the break: Island of the Blue Dolphins, the Science Fair Project, and the first completed draft (not the final draft) of the persuasive essay. We will be using a lot of our class time this week to work on these projects so students are not loaded down over spring break. Students should also use their homework time wisely this week to work on these assignments. (Details of the Science Project are posted on the "Science Room 119" tab in purple.) (Details of how the persuasive essay will be graded are posted on the "Homework" tab for this week in purple.)
For those of you attending the Ohio Trip, we are so happy you will be joining us. This really is a unique opportunity. Check out the link below for the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center to visit their website. We will be sending more information home this week about our itinerary. The bus will leave at 6:00 am on Friday morning, so students should plan on arriving at 5:30 am so we can load the bus and be ready to leave. We will leave promptly at 6:00 am and not wait for any late-comers.

The Ohio Trip!
This Monday, field trip slips will be sent home for our annual trip to The National Underground Railroad Museum in Cinncinati, Ohio. This is a wonderful opportunity for the children to learn more about the Underground Railroad and enjoy a unique field trip experience.
The spots are limited since the bus will only hold 53 passengers, so the first people to submit their money and slip will be those who will attend. The cost of the trip is $60 per student. Most of the money goes towards the cost of the coach bus, and some towards the entrance to the museum.
We are looking for 7 parents to attend. The price for parents is also $60. We understand the high cost, but know that you will find it to be a rewarding experience. Again, your help is what makes this trip possible and we greatly appreciate it.
See you at Report Card Pick-Up on Wednesday. Your exact conference time will be sent home on Monday with your child.
Have a great week!
