RICHLAND REFLECTIONS

Dear Richland Families,

I am thrilled to be back for these last six days of school! Please enjoy highlights from the past month including International Week, Music Concert, Celebrity Scoop Night, Talent Show, and Field Day in this last newsletter of 2022-2023!

Richland volunteers have a heart of gold, and we are looking forward to showering you with gratitude at our Volunteer Luncheon on Monday! Come any time between 11:30 and 1:30. I am so grateful for Richland's PTO and parents and guardians. Thank you for all you have done for our students and staff this school year!

Students in kindergarten through fourth grade will participate in Move-Up activities on Monday to introduce them to some classrooms and teachers they may see next year. We will also celebrate students' accomplishments at our kindergarten and fifth grade promotion ceremonies on Friday.

We will recognize student leadership throughout the year at our leadership assembly on Wednesday. We have achieved so much as a community this school year, and I am so proud of the partnership between our students, families, staff, and community. We have lived this year with intention and have all grown together.

Before summer break starts after June 12, please note the dates for summer fun and learning opportunities led by Mrs. DiStefano at Richland for all current K-5 and incoming students. Dates are in June and July!

Thank you for being part of such an amazing community! I wish you a safe and wonderful summer!

With gratitude,

Nicole

Summer Reading Requirement for Grade 6

Rising 6th Graders, as you read your summer reading book (a book of your choosing), complete one of the following assignments. In September, you will be using this in your ELA class.

Choice #1: Key Events & Plot Diagram: List the most significant (main) events of your book. List the events in chronological order. (Chronological means to list the events in the order they happen.) Then, fill out the plot diagram. Click here for more details.

Choice #2: Interview Questions: Write & answer 10 quality interview questions that you would like to ask an important character in the book. Questions should be open-ended and meaningful. Click here for more details.

Choice #3: Story Quilt: Prepare a “quilt” for your book following the directions below for each square. This activity includes both art and writing (which may be typed/cut/pasted or neatly hand-written). Click here for more details.

We read a different question each day. We encourage you to continue the conversations at home. Below are this week's questions. We'd love you to participate!

MONDAY: What is something that was hard for you at the start of the year but is easy now?

TUESDAY: What is something you accomplished this year that you are proud of?

WEDNESDAY: What advice would you give students who will be in this class next year?

THURSDAY: What was your favorite subject this year?

FRIDAY: What was your favorite activity from this year?

MONDAY, 6/12: What one word would describe this school year?
