     We will be going on our field trip on Wednesday, May 1.  We will be leaving at 8:20 am and go to the library first to visit with a special guest.  The school will provide students with a bag lunch for us to eat at the picnic tables if it is sunny.  If it rains, we will be able to eat lunch in the conference room of the library.  After the library, we will watch a movie at the movie theater.  We were originally supposed to be watching "Ugly Dolls", but the movie theater will not have that movie in time.  Please make sure you return permission slips by April 30th with the $6 requested. If you wish to pack your child's lunch, please do so. 

     This week starts benchmark testing and MAP testing.  We will have our test on Tuesday, May 8th.  We will have dress up week to kick off testing.

We will be practicing for our test all this week, please make sure your child is in attendance as much as possible for our practice sessions.  

We will start Graduation practice next week. Students will need to make sure they are there as much as possible for practice.  We will need parent volunteers to help decorate for Graduation.  If you would like to help decorate, please let me know. You can write a note or call me to let me know if you would like to help.

As always, thank you for all you do for our classroom.  If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at school or send a note.  Here's to another great week! -Ms. Abby
