A Note From Mrs. Waters
Enjoy your Spring Break with your family. I look forward to hearing about how they each spent their week off of school.
We will be doing some service learning awareness activities about penguins on the Monday, April 10. Its focus is on saving penguins. They will be learning to use less oil, recycle, and to use less plastic. An organization that you could support, if you and your child are interested, is SANCCOB.
On Monday a Movie Night Permission Slip went home for after school on Thursday, April 13. The middle school National Junior Honors Society is hosting it to raise money to buy Life Straws (which filters water when you drink from them) for people who live in places where there is no clean water. Attached is the permission slip and more information about it.
We will begin a new reading unit, We Can Be Reading Teachers! Please read the attached parent unit letter.
