Jan. 27

UPCOMING FIELD TRIP: We are headed to Hemlock Crossing on Friday, Feb. 10. Take a peek at the Hemlock Crossing Field Trip Sign Up. We need 2 more parent volunteers.

WRITING - We've completed our persuasive essays and celebrated those with the rest of the 4th grade.  Look for it to come home next week.  Be sure to read through it with your child and complement them on their work.  Next week we will being working on a non-fiction piece featuring a topic we have some personal expertise about.

SWIMMING LESSONS - Please be reminded that each day for the next two weeks we will be traveling to the Aquatic Center for swimming lessons.  Your child will appreciate outfits that are easy and quick to change in and out of for the next two weeks (and maybe a longer shirt to cover the unmentionables while changing in the locker room😉).  Some kids also like a hairbrush in their backpack so they can brush through their hair upon returning to school.

MORNING SNACK - Because we have swimming lessons just before lunch, our lunch time will be delayed.  It may be wise to send along a nutritious morning snack (as well as an afternoon snack) for the next two weeks.  Swimming usually makes kids hungrier anyway.  After that, we will return to our normal lunch time and will only need one snack a day.

WINTER ON THE PLAYGROUND - Please be sure your child is prepared to be fully dressed for winter during recess.  Coat, snow pants, boots, hats and mittens/gloves are necessary.  Also, a dry pair of indoor shoes (also appropriate for gym class) is necessary too.  Thank you for your support!
