Fifth Grade March - Friday, June 7, 2019 at 12:55 - 1:00
It is a tradition to celebrate and honor our 5th graders' time at Amana Elementary on the last day of school. To do this, our 5th graders will march through the halls starting at the 1st grade wing and off to the bus, while their younger schoolmates cheer them on and give high fives. Parents are welcome to attend - bring tissues ;)
Summer Birthday Bash!!!
We will be celebrating summer birthdays on Tuesday, June 4 with an ice cream party with the 4th grade. Teachers will provide the ice cream, bowls, and spoons. We invite our summer birthday kids to bring in their favorite topping to share. Anyone is welcome to bring toppings as well. Please bring toppings by Friday, May 31!!!
Thanks!
CLASSROOM BOOKS!!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!
I allow my students access to our classroom library on a trust-based system of return. Please encourage your child to clean their spaces at home to identify any books belonging to our classroom library. Time to look under beds, on shelves, and in closets! Sometimes a little adult help and encouragement is needed! My future readers THANK YOU!!!!!
