MEAP Reports


Look for the MEAP reports in your child's Friday folder tomorrow, April 1st.  As always, please contact me if you have any questions and/or concerns.

FREE DRESS

Free Dress is tomorrow, Friday, April 1st.  We had discussions today in class regarding dress for tomorrow's performance.  Their clothing needs to be nicer than what they would typically wear on Free Dress day, and shirts should not have any wording or graphic designs on them.  

Anne Frank play

On Friday, we'll be going to see the Anne Frank play. Everyone in the class said they didn't need a lunch from the school. So, there will be no school lunches for our class--we had to submit numbers of lunches today. Please make sure your child has a lunch on Friday. In addition, lunch will be much later in the day (at approximately 1:00). We will not have any time for snacks, so it is imperative that all students eat a hearty breakfast that will hold them over until 1:00.

Students must be on time for school both days! We will be leaving around 8:30.

Anne Frank Play Field Trip

On Friday, April 1, 2011, the fourth and fifth graders will be traveling to the Ford Community and Performing Arts Center in Dearborn to see the play, The Diary of Ann Frank. The cost for the play is $5.00, and is due by Thursday, March 24th.
Please have your student to school on time, as we will be leaving school at 9:00 a.m., and returning around 1:00. There will be bag lunches for those students who normally get school lunch. All other students should still bring their lunch. 

Field trip to UPA Middle School

On Thursday, March 31st, we will be taking a field to UPA Middle School from 9-11:00.



This weekend please encourage your child to spend some time researching an area of concern in regards to their “Do Something” project.

Proposals are due in three weeks and it is CRITICAL that each student spend enough time conducting research to ensure that they will have the following items solidified BEFORE they turn in their proposal on April 7th:

1.    A location for their “Do Something” project confirmed
AND
2.     Contacted an expert who has agreed to an interview

It is extremely important to have these two items secure BEFORE their proposal submission because remember, once your child submits their proposal it is FINAL!

That is why I am giving them more than THREE weeks to complete this task.

Any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
