Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Break.

We can still accept items for the Blacktop Ball gardening basket. Some suggestions are:
Miracle grow
sun block/bug repellent
garden statues
Leaf scoops (Ace on Northwest Hwy - @ $7.00)
kids gardening gloves, etc.
Or you might have an even better idea too! Thanks for everything we have already gotten in! I believe that all items need to be in by Friday.

Today we put all the names of the volunteers to be chaperone for the field trip in a big bowl, and the helper of the week chose one name. If you did not receive a note in your child's folder today, your name was not picked. Thanks to everyone who offered...I wish all of you could go with us!

Homework: Have your child read the current story in their reader to you tonight. Also, please continue to work on the math subtraction flashcards, spelling words and giraffe lists. The spelling test is next Tuesday, April 24th. All remaining giraffe lists (Dolch Words) should be completed as soon as possible.

Please sign the Math tests, and return to school tomorrow. Also, please remember to return your signed report card.

Currently we are working on a planting unit in Science, in conjunction with our Earth Day studies. The children had a lot of fun planting today.

Have a great night.
