Sunsational Summer Reading

The last week of June we will winding down our first grade year and getting ready for some summer fun. To get into the mood for summer reading, I am asking each student to bring in a towel/blanket, favorite books, sunglasses and a hat/visor. We will take advantage of the warm weather and spend some time reading in the great outdoors around our school.

Poet Palooza

The first graders have been working hard writing some amazing poetry. We will showcase these original poems at a poetry reading called Poet Palooza on Thursday, June 11th at 2:15 in our classroom. We hope to see you there.

Beach Trip is Cancelled

Boo Hoo, no beach trip today. It's too bad that the weather is not cooperating. We will make the best of it here at school. Thank you for providing lunch for our class today.

In Case of Rain...

We are scheduled to go to the beach tomorrow. The weather is not looking so good. A final decision will be made tomorrow morning. I will do an all class email in the morning to let everyone know the status of the trip.

In the event that we get rained out, all students should come to school. They can still dress in their beach attire since tomorrow the Student Council is sponsoring a 'Tropical Island Day'.

We will have an indoor picnic in our classroom. The kids can bring in a towel/blanket to sit on while eating their lunches. If we can't get to the beach we can at least pretend! Lunch food items should be dropped off at 11:30 to the classroom.

Thank you for your cooperation with this. Hopefully the weather will change and we won't have to make changes, but I'd rather be prepared.

Cheers to Our Moms

Thank you for coming out to celebrate the end of a great year at the Domenici's. Thank you to Suzanne and Jen for hosting the event. It was a wonderful evening!

Beach Trip

The first grade beach trip will be on Friday, June 5th at Pear Tree Point. Our wonderful Room Moms have been working hard to coordinate the picnic lunch. We hope to see you there! (If it rains we will have an indoor picnic at school.)

Laura Numeroff

We will spend some time reading books by Laura Numeroff this week during Reading Workshop. Laura's books are fun and silly, perfect for this time of the year. You might like to visit her website: www.lauranumeroff.com.
