Week of March 28, 2016
A Note from Ms. Jazmin:
Hello Families! I hope that everyone had a wonderful long weekend and that everybody was able to enjoy the glorious weather we had over Spring Break. Hopefully we don't have too many pollen allergy sufferers.
It has been a busy several weeks since I was last able to post a newsletter. We have had the Common Writing Assessment that was given last week, we have had SRI and MAP testing going on since the week before Spring Break, we are in GMAS review land for third year students. Please make sure your child is bringing in the review the day it is due, whether it is complete or not. The homework is driving our review in the classroom!
We finished our read aloud, Shiloh, before Spring Break and the students are anxiously awaiting the movie! If anyone has a copy at home that they are willing to let us borrow, that would be wonderful.
Students made their own individual King Cakes after their lesson with Ms. Lynn about the history of Mardi Gras. I know I learned a lot! Did you know that Mardi Gras (Tuesday Fat) translates to Fat Tuesday from French?! I should have known that as I know French, but it just never dawned on me.
The North America postcards continue to come in! Thank you! I will be posting another photo as soon as I am able to get them up. Keep them coming!

Lastly, thank you to those that came to support our students at our Explorers of the Universe event! All of the students truly did an amazing job. It was a pleasure to see all of the students hard work and pride in presenting their materials and subject matter!

Upcoming HEALTHY snack weeks for 26 students: We do have a low level peanut allergy in the classroom, so we prefer peanut free snacks so that the student may also participate in snack with the class.
Some suggestions for snack are: precut fruit (apples, grapes, bananas cut in half, oranges, etc.), precut vegetables with hummus for dipping, cheese and crackers, granola bars or chewies, trail mix, applesauce, hummus and crackers, yogurt or Gogurt, graham crackers… The purpose of snack is to provide a nutritious energy booster when the students need it. Please keep in mind the nutritional value when choosing a snack.
