Solar System, here we come!


Hi Everyone!
  I hope you kept cool this weekend! It was a warm one. Summer is on its way. Please keep your child hydrated by sending them with a bottle of water everyday. A morning application of sunscreen isn’t a bad idea, either.
  This week we will be getting back into our regular routines. Testing week is always a little bit crazy for the kids but they all did an awesome job!
   We will be working on continued multiplying using arrays this week. Language Arts will have us writing and reading about planets and Curious George! In Science we will do a quick unit on the Solar System to get us ready for our field trip on Monday, the 30th, to the Planetarium.
    If you have not turned in your child’s permission slip or money yet, please do so ASAP. We have to pay for half of our group by Tuesday. Remember, your child will need a sack lunch, a red LaPaloma shirt, good walking shoes and a hat. Also, a water bottle and an optional hat. We will be having lunch on the U of A Mall. We will be leaving the school at 9a.m.
    Spelling words this week will be located on your homework packet. I will try to get them posted to the blog.
    Have a Super Week!
            Mrs. Nye
