What a trip!

Ipoh Field Trip:
Well, we made it back from an amazing trip to Ipoh with Eco Field Trips. Students embraced the opportunities to get their hands dirty, and learn many exciting new skills, such as using a scientific key to name various invertebrates, pan for tin, paint, using hematite stone and roast marshmallows, just as a few examples! I am sure that each student has arrived home with many exciting stories from their trip. Please visit the following link to see pictures of the entire 4th Grade during the trip.  Thank you to the parents for seeing their children off early in the morning, and being there to pick them up upon their return. Hopefully you were able to keep informed regarding our trip through Aspen, or Twitter. Also, thank you to Eco Field Trips for such an amazing experience for everyone. 


























Novel Knockout:
Congratulations to the Reading Rubies (Vanessa, Anna, Ananya, and Ria) and to the Reading Drakons (Reem, Keshav, Brynn, Mridu)  for finishing first place and second place in the MKIS Novel Knockout competition! They have been invited to a regional competition at ISKL where they will compete against teams from other schools. A congratulations also to all of the other teams who participated in Novel Knockout by reading, working as team, and attending Novel Knockout practices over the last 3 months. 
Happy Reading!

Upcoming Music Concert:
Costume Information: 
• Students will need to come to school in costume the morning of May 15thand then arrive at 6:45pm in costume that evening. 
• All students should wear black bottoms (pants, shorts to the knee, or skirts past the knee are preferable) and black shoes. 
• All students need black shoes that will grip the stage. Soft soled sports shoes (no cleats) are perfect. If you don’t have black, just pick a dark color. 
• The tops need to have short or long sleeves and be school appropriate. Tops should be mostly one color. Make sure that there are no words (brand names, sports team names, life mottos, etc.) on the shirt. 4B is asked to wear BLUE again.

Mrs. Storey has uploaded all the music for the concert onto her blog.  Students can pop on over and practice singing their songs at home!
