PBIS-Greenland Gathering
At our Greenland Gathering yesterday, the 2nd graders sang a beautiful song about kindness. The students also met Helen Hertneky. Mrs. Hertneky talked to the kids about her work with Operation Smile. Operation Smile helps bring used school supplies to schools that are in need. As Greenland students are preparing to clean up, they will have the opportunity to donate to this cause. If you do not want your child to donate used supplies, please inform the classroom teacher.
Word of the Week
The word for this week is: self-respect
Summer Reading
It isn’t too early to begin thinking about ways to keep your child reading this summer. Summer reading is critical so that students are able to maintain the growth they have made this school year. Research has shown that summer learning loss can amount to losing a half year’s growth! However, students who participate in summer reading programs often make academic gains over the summer. We are fortunate to have access to many great reading programs this summer! Consider participating in at least one of the following to help your child start next year strong! Contact Mrs. Moulis at moulism@oasd.org for more information on any of these programs.
Oconomowoc Public Library: The Oconomowoc Public Library runs a great summer reading program to encourage students to continue to read over the summer. Greenland students will be hearing more about these programs during presentations on May 25th.
Epic!: An on-line library that provides over 20,000 books for students to read on any device. There is a free 30 day trial and after that a monthly subscription costs $4.99.
LOL Bookmobile: Once again, the LOL bookmobile will be making scheduled stops around Oconomowoc for book check out, guest readers, snacks and crafts! New this year – evening stops at Fowler Park and additional titles for Upper Elementary and Intermediate students.
