Class News 5 - 27 - 2016
What a fun and exhausting week we have had in 5th grade! Students had snake-tastic time on the field trip on Wednesday! We learned so much about our proud town of Amana. Also the root beer and cream soda were especially delicious on our trip to the Oldest Microbrewery in Iowa! Our trip to Lake Iowa was a blast as well. I think some of your kids will want to go fishing in the near future!
Data will be send home and Report cards will be emailed out on Thursday, June 2nd.
REMINDER: Friday we have early out at 1:05pm
If you are interested in purchasing LAST YEARS (2014-15) yearbook, please send a check payable to AES PTO for the amount of $15.
Library books are due back! Some of these books are at home. Please spend time talking to your student about where these books are located.
If your child is attending summer school, a note was sent home with them today.

SUMMER BIRTHDAYS
We love all the treats and celebrating we do for our students' birthdays, but sometimes it feels like our summer birthdays get short changed since it does not fall during the school year. The 4th and 5th grade teachers would like to honor the 4th and 5th grade birthdays by having an ice cream social. We will supply ice cream and would love for your student to supply a topping. Some examples might be: candy bar crushed, cut up fruit like strawberries or bananas, whipped cream, sprinkles, gummy treats, sauces like caramel or chocolate, maybe a can of coke or root beer if they do not like toppings.
We will have this celebration on Thursday, June 2nd to celebrate all summer birthdays!
Friday we will be swimming that morning, so suits and towels will be needed.
Our last band practice will be on Tuesday. If you rented an instrument from the school it will stay at school. If you bought one or rented from another company, it will be brought home.
