Greetings families!
I hope you are enjoying this (slightly) warmer weather! I realized that somehow I lost a week at some point and Starbase is already NEXT WEEK!!! On Wednesday, April 5th we will have our first visit to the Air National Guard Base to learn about science, engineering, and other cool things! Our second (and last) day at Starbase will be the following Wednesday, April 12th. Our rocket launch day (at Orchard) will be on Thursday, April 20th. Families are welcome to attend this event, and it will be outside! I will give you the times once we have that squared away! Today, I sent home an Emergency Contact form that is for Starbase. This form is required by Starbase staff/the Air National Guard for any student setting foot on the base. If I do not have this form for your student by the time we leave next Wednesday, they cannot come. I cannot accept a phone call. Please make sure this form gets returned ASAP! On the back of the form is the behavior policy at Starbase. I made it clear to students today that if they are not being their best selves, they will not be invited back, but going over that again wouldn't hurt! There is also a general letter about the program that you can read as well. We do not accept chaperones for these trips. I am sorry for the late notice on this, I can't believe it is already almost April! Please let me know if you have any questions! Sincerely, Mrs. Reagan P.S. I will be reaching out about finalized conference times soon! If your student was originally in Mrs. Bliss's class, I will reach out soon about scheduling!

Friday, March 24th - No School: Teacher Inservice Hi all! Happy St. Patrick's Day! Just to let everyone know that my email account has officially been changed to [email protected] so you will receive emails from this account now. If you accidentally email the old account, it will still forward the information to me at the new one, so no big deal there. We celebrated as a whole school today with a "The Floor Is Lava" challenge periodically throughout the day. I will say that I was impressed with the students in our class in how they had fun while keeping their bodies safe! If you have any questions about anything play-related, please reach out to [email protected] In Math, we are currently finishing up a unit on Order of Operations. Students have been doing a great job of working with many different types of problems! We have also been working on liquid measurement using milliliters, deciliters, and liters. I hope that you all have a great weekend! Sincerely, Mrs. Reagan Important Dates:
- Sunday, March 12th: Daylight Savings, spring forward! - Friday, March 17th: Early Release Day Greetings families! I hope that you all had a fabulous February Break! Students came back to a gift of the book Finally Seen by Kelly Yang (they're autographed too!). Our wonderful PTO bought the books for all 4th and 5th graders, so a big thank you to them for making that happen! Our entire 5th grade class has done a really great job of adjusting to the changes we have had in the past few weeks. Students have been flexible and friendly with each other. We have a really great classroom community! Play practice has officially started, and I can't wait to see all of the hard work that the cast and crew puts in! I don't have anything else to share at the moment, but please let me know if there is anything you need! Sincerely, Mrs. Reagan |
