Behaviors/Kindness

As the end of the school year approaches we are struggling as a class to really be nice to one another. We have spent time doing class meetings and discussing behaviors that are appropriate and inappropriate at school. I have had many one on one conversations with students about behavior as well. We will be working this week on kindness lessons, and truly reminding them of the golden rule that "if you have nothing nice to say, then don't say it at all." Thank you for your support in this, and also speaking with your child. I want to have a good end of the year, and I know we can!


Spring Field Trip- Potawatomi Zoo

Just a reminder, if you are wanting to join us for our June 3rd field trip, please return the blue note to school by this Friday, April 29th.  

 

Spring Weather

As temperatures begin to warm up, please remind your child that they will need a coat for recess if the temperature has not reached 60 degrees.  If they are playing and get warm, they are asked to tie their coat around their waist.

 

Testing Continues this Week!

We will begin NWEA reading testing on Tuesday and Wednesday this week.  Please be sure your child’s computer is fully charged the night before.  In addition, please ensure they get plenty of rest and a good breakfast the morning of the test.  Students have as much time as they need to take this test.  Anyone that still needs to complete their test will finish on Thursday. Here are the dates for the remainder of our testing sessions.  Please try to avoid absences or appointments on these days:  

  • NWEA Math - May 4th and 5th

  • M-Step Math - May 17th and 18th

 

Positivity Project Character Strength :   This week’s character strength is Purpose.  You have beliefs about the meaning of life and your life’s purpose.  You seek to be part of something greater than yourself.
