A note came home with the kids on Friday dealing with our busy schedule this week. I am posting the same information here!

Monday: Speeches begin for the famous Iowan project. Please remember to practice the speeches. A costume and prop are required for full credit. The project is worth nearly 200 points! I am really looking forward to seeing the final product that they have worked so hard to prepare!

Tuesday: Field trip to Des Moines to the Character Counts/ Live Healthy Iowa Kids assembly. The kids will be given their free t-shirts on Monday. They ARE to wear them on Tuesday. They also need to wear comfy shoes (no flip flops). They will be given a lunch before we leave the assembly, so they are not to bring their own. Mrs. Trampel is requesting no electronic devices.

Wednesday: Early out

Thursday: More speeches

Friday: Field trip to Eagle Grove for Ag Days. We will be learning about the importance of Iowa's agriculture. The kids DO need to bring a lunch on this day. Dress for the weather, as we will be at the fairgrounds in Eagle Grove.

Vocab test has been changed to Monday, as we had a change in schedule on Friday. RC quiz #15 is due on Monday as well!

Amazing performance!

The fifth and sixth grade students did an amazing job at their concert tonight! I couldn't have been more impressed. It is so neat to see them strut their stuff. So proud of all of them!

The kids put on a matinee of their "Rock and Roll" show for the younger kids today. They were wonderful! I can't believe how talented they are! The show is tomorrow night! They brought notes home AGAIN today, as some of them didn't bring the last one home :)

Homework tonight: Genre worksheet, Pen pal letters for Meyer's room also.

Next RC quiz is due Monday. There are still many kids staying in for recess because they are more than 2 books behind!

No homework for the long weekend! I hope everyone enjoys their break!

Vocabulary words have been posted to the wiki for next week's test. The test will be on Friday. Remember no spelling words until we are finished with our famous Iowan project. Remember to check with that post to see what we are doing each day in the afternoon. I will continue to update that post, so we can keep it all together. It is really turning into a fun and AMAZING learning experience!
