There are geography and DOL quizzes on Friday.
The latest count on food for the dinner theater is:
I sent a permission slip home today. I would like to keep the class after school on next Tuesday. We will need the time to make last minute preparations and for dress rehearsals. I will keep them until the dinner theater so please send extra snacks.
More information on the dinner theater.
This is the breakdown of the responses related to food so far:
Obviously, we need more main courses. Those of you who have not responded yet, please plan on bringing a main course or salad. If the numbers are still skewed as of next Wednesday, I might buy a large cake for the dessert. That way everyone could bring salads, appetizers, or main courses. We will have access to warmers to store main courses if necessary. Thanks for all of your support with this activity
I might need to keep the children here at school on Tuesday the 20th from dismissal time till the dinner. I will send home a permission slip on Wednesday if I think it will be necessary. Please make a point of checking email and the blog frequently between now and the dinner theater.
Here is a list of upcoming events:
Students, who don't have a parent chaperoning on next Tuesday's field trip to Blue Ridge Outdoor Education Center, received a form regarding transportation home after the trip.
No graded papers have been sent home this week.
Two important permission letters were sent home relating to the Blue Ridge field trip. One is a medical release form and the other is permission to watch movies on the bus.
The class will be putting on a dinner theater on Tuesday, May 20 from 5 -7:00 PM. Next Monday you will receive forms relating to this event.
Pictures were sent home today. These are different than in the past, because they were sent home without paying first. Please take the time to read the order forms and decide which if any pictures you intend to purchase. Return any unpurchased photos and or payment. Also, the order form for the fifth grade panoramic photo was sent home.
Reminder: Students who did interviews need to have his or her answers at school on Friday. If your child did not find anyone to interview, I will work on an alternate assignment with them.
These items were sent home:
Here are the interview questions. Feel free to edit them if you think of questions that are missing or ones that could be improved. I'm working on another set or questions related to the Civil Rights Movement as an option for students who don't have anyone to interview. The deadline for completing the interviews is Friday, April 18.
Upcoming tests:
A spelling test was sent home.
The class received questions for interviews today. They should try to find a person that experienced the Great Depression and World War Two for the project. Students who are unable to find an interviewee can modify the assignment. Other topics that are acceptable are the Korean War, Vietnam War, Civil Rights Era or any other historically significant event.
Target students will need to return the donation and permission slips for the field trip to Blue Ridge tomorrow, because they will be at St. Simons when the deadline passes.
