The last few days of school...

Last week....
Conferences:
Students appreciated being able to share their year's work with their parents at the Student-Led Conference. It was certainly a time for each student to shine, through games of "Simon Says...." where they could challenge parents with scientific names for the bones, to demonstrating their skills using the electricity supplies, and showing off all of their assignments from the year to show their growth. 

Class Poetry Cafe:
Last week, students and parents had a wonderful time sharing and listening to poetry from 4B.  Students should be very proud of their hard work that led up to the grand finale: Their oral reading of two of their favorite poems. We had a wonderful celebration back in the classroom where parents got to read through the poetry notebooks. It was certainly a wonderful way to spend the morning! 

Teacher Appreciation Day:

THANK YOU! You certainly surprised me! Thank you so much for the recognition, and for the beautiful framed photo of our class. I will certainly treasure the token of appreciation from you all! It has truly been a great year, and I have very  much enjoyed teaching this group of students over the school year. I wish them all the best next year, and you, the parents, as well!

This week...
Class Party: 
Our class party will be held on Wednesday, June 11th, and all are welcome to join us. It will definitely be a great way to wrap up the year, with delicious snacks and a chance to say our finals goodbyes before the summer holidays, and we all part in our separate directions. Please join us, from 12-12:45 if you are available!

For your information, here is an update of the schedule for the last two days of school:

Wednesday:
9:15- 10:00       Last assembly of the year in the theatre
10:30-11:15     Our final PE class will take place in the pool!
12-12:45           End of the year class party with snacks and games
1:00 - 3:30        Mrs. Pat Carrelli's retirement tea in the library. Our class will visit  her at  2:30. Several students have written her a poem and will share that with her tomorrow afternoon. I am certainly that she will be overjoyed by their kind words!

Thursday: Half Day
10:50 - 11:50       Closing Circle and Good Byes
11:50am               School is out:  Let the summer holiday begin!

Thank you to you all for such a great year, from beginning to end.  I have really enjoyed getting to know this group of students, and I know that they will continue to be successful, both in school and out. Also, thank you to  the parents for being so supportive. I have enjoyed getting to know each of you as well! A great big THANK YOU goes out to our Room Moms, Savitree and Susan, for all of their help throughout the year with parties and field trips, and many other events in school and out. You have both made everything run smoothly, and I do appreciate all of your efforts!

Have a great holiday. Safe travels to you all. Best of luck next year, at MKIS, or at your new school, for those of you leaving. It has truly been a wonderful year!
