Harlan Families,

It is hard to believe that we are entering the last week of school. These past 2 and half years have at times seemed extremely long and at the same time have been a blur. However, the school year is not over yet. We still have some learning to do, celebrations to be had, and our 5th Grade Promotion and Clap Out!

I am looking forward to seeing many of you at our classroom parties.

I hope you all enjoy the weekend!

Sincerely,

Alex

Song 1: Three Little Birds Originally written and performed by Bob Marley Notes by Mrs. Smith’s Class

The song Three Little Birds is about happiness and kindness. When birds sing it makes us smile. When we smile it makes others happy. When we’re kind it makes others want to be kind as well. Smile when you can, and be kind always!

Song 2: I Wish You More Story by Amy Kraus Rosenthal; Music by Emily Arrow Notes by Mr. Kefgen’s Class

When you’re sad we wish for you to be happy again. That’s what this story and song are all about! When we help and take care of each other it makes the world a better place. “I wish you more umbrella than rain!”
