Happy Spring!

Just a few gentle suggestions as we head into spring break:

  • Check kiddo's backpack for any stray papers.
    • Any papers in their backpack at this point can just stay at home.
  • Check that kiddo has their Chromebook, agenda, silver folder, and purple writing folder in their backpack.
    • PLEASE check that your child has the above items. A few kiddos have misplaced their agendas and silver folders.
    • Any other items might need to come to school. Please feel free to email me if you're not sure.
  • Make sure kiddo has a good set of headphones that can come to school.
  • Make sure kiddo has 2-3 well-fitted face masks.
    • I would really recommend keeping a couple extras in their backpack.
  • Take time for the kids and yourself to relax! It's been a long school year and we're coming up to the final stretch after spring break.
Please keep in mind that my email and Remind notifications will be turned off during break. I might check it occasionally, but I will not actively be checking until the morning of April 5th. 
If you have an school-related emergency, I would recommend contacting the PNB Front Office or the PNB admin, Mr. Thiessen (paul.thiessen@lcps.org), Mrs. Boyd (leigh.boyd@lcps.org), or Mrs. Wilhelm (erin.wilhelm@lcps.org).

Week Overview
*Morning Meeting - We shared numbers this week.
*Reading - We compared fairy tales to fractured fairy tales to see what's similar and what's different. We also practiced retelling stories. 
*Writing - We wrote stories using picture prompts. We will write fractured fairy tales after spring break.
*Math - We practiced telling time to the nearest 5 minutes and learned the difference between a.m. and p.m. We will continue this after spring break.
*Science - We continued learning about matter. We learned how matter can change states - evaporate, condensate, heat/cool. When we return from spring break, we will learn about American symbols and going to the doctor and dentist.

I'll see all the kids online Monday, April 5th!
Have a fantastic spring break,
