We have several talent shows notifications going around-emails, one on our marquee etc. Here is the 411 on that: Q1 will be holding a talent show tomorrow morning. To participate in this talent show, you had to apply and receive an email back from the school.  Our grade will be attending from 9:45-10:30. Very few Forth graders will participate. If you didn’t receive an email, you didn’t make the cut. There aren’t very many spots open for this show. Tuesday, Q2 is holding a talent show for the Jr. High kids. If you have a kiddo over there, you have been receiving those email too.

The Fourth Grade team will be having our very own talent show. We are holding it for an hour over two days. Wednesday and Thursday from 9-10. Our talent show is very informal. The audience will only be Fourth Graders and their parents/guardians. This is an opportunity for “ALL” (who want to) of the kids to participate. They can even show some art! Their performance will be limited to 2 minutes each. We have an electric piano to use for our pianists. I will help them project their art onto the screen that day. All other props they need for their performance, will need to be brought from home. I can get their music for them too. Music MUST be clean, child age appropriate music. If your child would like to participate, have them tell me. AGAIN, this is very informal but it would be fun to see them in a costume, dance uniform, etc. They will need to change into approved dress down clothes afterwards.

ALL of our testing is done and their grades are in the system! Report Cards are available on-line. The school will be sending an email out explaining how to access these. I make mistakes, let me know if you see one

This is a fun summer activity, my daughter participated in it last year. 


Lastly, tomorrow is a $1  DRESS DOWN DAY. Last one on the year! Next week, is FREE DRESS DOWN ALL WEEK. IT IS SHORT DAY ALL WEEK TOO!

Our class has been working SUPER DUPER hard this week! We have SMASH several tests! We are going to celebrate with “technology day.” Friday, May 10th, student may bring any technology they would like.

Here are the rules: ANYTHING they bring, could get broken. If it gets broken, our school will not pay to have it replaced. UNDER any circumstances -we are not liable for a broken or stolen device. ALL devices will be brought to my classroom in the morning and dropped off. Nothing is allowed outside during recess. The kids will play with them from 11:30-12:00, and 1:00-1:20. Given that they will play with them for about an hour, please don’t bring something that takes several minutes to set-up. Our school’s technology rules apply this day. All games must be rate “E” for everyone. There will not be wi-fi available or use of the classroom TV/Monitor. The easiest technology is our classroom technology. I will still have their Chromes computers available and ipads. They will be able to use student links, Bloxels, additional apps already loaded onto them.

Don’t forget the SCHOOL CARNIVAL IS FRIDAY EVENING!!!
