Dear Parents,
End of the year updates:
1. Friday (tomorrow), June 14th - Softball game – the 6th grade vs.
staff softball game is after lunch this Friday. Your student will benefit from
extra sunscreen, a hat, water, a towel to sit on, a poster to cheer on their
favorite teachers ;), etc. This is a fun event that the 6th
grades students have waited a long time for!.
2. Monday, June 17th - Please celebrate with your students, our class earned their 5th incentive party of the year. In my 6 years at Meadow Park I have never had a class work harder to all be on task, get their homework turned in, be on time and ready, and stay motivated to earn incentive parties. We will be celebrating on Monday, June 17th with Root beer/sprite floats. On a side note they negotiated for one more incentive party to try to earn 20 minutes of
silent speed ball the last week of school and they are actively trying to reach
incentive party #6…WOW! All homework has been turned in his week so far by all
the students! (This will also be their last night of homework for the year).
3. Tuesday, June 18th – Last day of Science Lab
4. Wednesday, June 19th - Pool Party- Just a reminder that the pool party is Wednesday the 19th. They need to bring shoes to walk in, water, snacks (the students are usually
hungrier at the pool), a towel, and sunscreen. They do not need to bring their
backpack to school, unless they are using it to carry their pool party supplies
in. We will provide two slices of pizza, a drink, and an ice cream treat. (No
Music)
5. Thursday, June 20th - Auction- Our end of the year class auction (using class tickets
that they have earned) will be Thursday June 20th (last day). The
students are going to be allowed to bring in any items they wish to auction off
to the class. These can be new, used, or homemade items. I prefer that we stay
away from foods or candies though. Old books, toys, games, cds etc. are all
great items. This is optional none of the students have to participate,
but it is fun. I also have a few items to add to the auction!
6. Thursday, June 20th – Last day of school, out at 1pm. Report Cards are posted at 3pm.
7. Colonial Day Pictures - We would like to share
