April 18, 2011

We have just over a month until school is out. I can't believe how fast this year has flown by! I have a couple announcements and reminders for you this week.

There will be no school on Thursday, Friday or Monday, April 21st, 22nd, and 25th. I hope you have a nice few days off with your kids.

Spirit week is coming up! Here are the dress days:
Wednesday, April 20th: Jersey Day/Sports Day
Tuesday, April 26th: Hippie Day
Wednesday, April 27th: Free Dress Down Day
Thursday, April 28th: PJ Day
Friday, April 29th: Crazy Hair/Crazy Hat Day
If your child does not dress up in the theme for the day they need to be in uniform!

This week is the penny war! We will be raising money for the American Heart Association and March of Dimes. There is more information about this in my newsletter and in the link.

I did give homework and spelling this week. The packet is meant to cover the next two weeks, and is not due until April 29th. Also the spelling test will be on April 29th. The packet is longer than usual since it is going to cover more time. If you have any problems with getting it done please let me know!

The booklet fundraiser ends on Wednesday so please send any money or unsold books back to school.

Here are the spelling words:

1. weird
2. either
3. vein
4. reindeer
5. veil
6. new
7. few
8. grew
9. knew
10. threw

Bonus words:
