Good afternoon 6th graders. It’s always a hectic ending to our school year with your “walking away.” I feel I did not get to wish everyone good luck with your summer and coming middle school career. I’m very proud of you all. Hope you stop in and visit. Leave a comment if you’d like to share your summer plans with us. Check back once in a while this summer if you would like to continue and stay in touch with your class.
Mr. R

Thanks to the PTO for our ice cream social with Dr. Jarpe this afternoon.  We secretly signed the school aerial photo from the yearbook, then had this framed for him.  Also thanks to Dairy Queen for supplying the ice cream bars we enjoyed during the festivities.

Homework tonight is to complete our Summer of the Monkeys picture (in color, full page), WEB is due 8 days from now, read Ch. 20 of ROOT, bring a paper bag for your artwork, bring books for the book swap, and write a one page letter in cursive to your kindergarten buddy.

Stay cool and enjoy your evening.

Students need to complete 12.2/12.3 in their history journal, WEB projects are due next Wednesday (as are math redos), read Ch. 18 of Running out of Time, sign science test and if you haven’t done so please bring your 4.50 for our field trip.

I reminded the students today of their study island accounts and all were able to log in successfully, I’ve linked the study island site to the side of this blog. Remember this site is designed to support student learning in specific areas – it’s a great way to beef up any weaknesses.

Nine days left, what a crazy thought. Please bring the field trip money Monday (4.50 per student). Tomorrow morning at Riverview Park join ‘Hannah’s Hikers’ in our Cystic Fibrosis fundraiser ($210 at the bake sale today!). In the evening tomorrow you may join in the moon walk or slip n’ slide at her bbq beginning around 6:30. An invitation went home with every fifth grader. See you there.

Traveled to Upton today, enjoyed ourselves and started to feel at home…scary thought. Need to bring baked goods for our sale tomorrow (all to support Cystic Fribrosis Foundation) and I hope to see you at Riverview Park this Saturday to join ‘Hannah’s Hikers’ I’ll be there with the whole fam. Math and science tests tomorrow, 10,000 projects due, and softball and the end of the day. Thanks to Vicki B. and Robin P. who are my first two I’ve roped into providing drinks and paper products for our class picnic at Shoreham Park on May 29. We’ll have pizza as our main dish and Mrs. Schueneman’s class will be providing the snacks and desserts. See you all tomorrow.

Another round of softball games today, lots of action, lots of runs – 13-8 – in the game I officiated.  Math and science tests this Friday, history test tomorrow, also p. 44-45 of history journal, read Ch. 15 of R.O.O.T., study link 10.9, and sign your science progres report.  Travel to Upton tomorrow to get our feet wet in a little bigger pond.  I’m off to the Retirement Tea at the high school celebrating our departing educators.
