| Mr. Hubbard's Teacher Appreciation Gift Today!! |
Big news #2 -- kids don’t need to pack a lunch tomorrow since the parents earned a pizza lunch and ice-cream social for the 5th graders (highest % of parents at the post auction night)
Next Wednesday is the big tide-pool field trip. Students need to be here and ready to enter the bus at 7:30 a.m. SHARP. The bus drives away at 7:42 and 30 seconds. Therefore do NOT be late and use the restroom either here at school or at home. We have the more cost-effective bus so it doesn’t have a restroom.
We could use a few more chaperons for this field trip.
So far we have confirmed:
Guidi, Nolan, Ferguson, Wanzenried, Callaway, Holmes, Lutz, and Maplesden.
If you are interested and have met all of the pre-background check stuff, then please let me know ASAP. We could use 2 to 3 more chaperons.
More information to come on Tuesday..Everyone needs to pack a lunch & snack. Wear shoes you don’t mind getting wet and/or ruined and how to dress.
Today -- big 5th grade singing practice for next Wednesday night’s singing concert. Please have your son/daughter show up and sing if it is at all feasible.
Students spent the day working on the following projects:
Famous American
Open House Presentation
More economics with Khan Academy and cupcakes.
More CNN-Students
More Brainpops
They also spent some more time discussing the science behind the family life unit. I believe the discussion is the changes that occur during puberty. Feel free to ask your son/daughter questions and get their perspective on what they are learning.
Finally we spent the time after lunch getting ready for Open-House. We cleaned, we organized, we put items into the “take home” or “stays here” folders, and helped our more “organizationally challenged” peers.
Kind Regards,
Mr. Hubbard
