I am not giving you traditional homework this week. We will still have spelling words. We will work on them in class. Let’s take a homework break for now. Take time to go for a walk, ride your bike, play a game with your brother or sister, and help both your mom and dad do something. Enjoy being a kid.

We are having pizza (with your permission) on May 23rd. Please sign this form so your child can participate. Thank you!

Don’t forget to read over the summer. Here are some fun programs the librarian found and some of them have cool incentives too! Plus, if you log in your time through scholastic and our school has the most minutes we get in some kind of record book!

Scholastic information:

Here is how to get your account set up:
The instructions for getting started are as follows:

1. Go to this web site: www.scholastic.com/ups/campaigns/src-2017
2. Go to “Kids and Families” in the blue box and click “Go Now”
3. The box on the right gives the option to “register here” or “login”, click on “login”.  (They’re already registered)
4. Type in your username and password given to you by scholastic, (see above photo – if you click on it, it will become bigger so you can see the information needed)
5. It will then ask the kiddos to type in a new password and answer a security question – fill in the appropriate info & submit.  Make sure your write down the new password or print the page with the info on it.
6. Start logging your minutes!

The next one is for Barnes & Noble.  All you do is print off a reading journal, read 8 books and fill out a little bit of info for each, then take the journal into the store & pick out a free book.  Too easy!!  Here is the link for the journal. They have an English & Spanish version available.

There is also supposed to be some information coming from the public libraries too. I will pass that information along as soon as I have it.

If you haven’t sent your $4 donation for your t-shirt and can donate, please do so. We are a little short being able to cover all these shirts for the students. Thank you!
