Mrs. Burch's Weekly Update (4/29)

Happy Friday! :)

Information came home last week for our Howell Walking Field Trip, which is May 23rd. If you have not signed and returned the permission slip and $1 for ice cream, please do so as soon as possible. Our randomly selected chaperones are Mrs. Baibak, Mrs. Elrod, Mrs. Galorneau, Mrs. Hamlin, Mrs. Jackovich, Mrs. Opperman, Mrs. Rosenthal, and Mrs. Vagnetti (Waters). There was a lot of interest and I apologize that I cannot take everyone! I wish I could! Thank you for understanding!

We have a Spirit Day next Wednesday, May 4th! :)


We are still in need of individually wrapped snacks for our snack bin. Please remind your child to pack a healthy snack daily. There are quite a few students who never bring a snack, but take one from the bin every day. Thank you in advance for your donations!

Spelling is going to look a little different for the rest of the year. Our tests will focus on snap words and sentence structure. Students should practice the words throughout the week (we will still send the paper copy lists home) and the test will be a sentence dictation test on Friday. Students will be expected to write the dictated sentences correctly. We will be looking for capitals and punctuation, in addition to the words being spelled correctly in the sentence. This will help prepare them for 3rd grade!

*Please note the date/time of our 2nd grade performance was incorrect on the original note. Our 2nd grade Fine Arts Festival is Thursday, May 12 @ 6pm! 

Mobile Dentist is coming on May 16! Check the link for details!

Reading: Loving and Sharing Series Books
Phonics: Prefixes
Writing: Nonfiction writing
