North End

Thank you to everyone for sending in the cash and the check.  I appreciate all of the parent volunteers to chaperone.  If you are a chaperone, you will receive an email in the next two days about some logistics.

Butterfly Release Ceremony

We went out into the pretty grassy area outside the school and bade a fond farewell to our butterflies.  We sat in a circle and sang songs from our Poetry Notebook for them, and one by one they took flight.  Except one.  One of the astute butterfly observers in our class said that the butterfly that declined to exit the pavillion had a broken wing that occured when another butterfly flew into it a few days ago.  So we now have one butterfly left!

Wood

Thank you so much to the Bargoots and the Ryans for getting us the wood for our community project.  You guys are the best!

No Homework

There will be no more regular homework.   But please make sure your child is reading for 20 minutes every night!

Monday Memo 5/13/19

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day.

Wood Wanted

If you have any 3x3 pieces of wood to donate to our class, I would really appreciate it.  Thank you so much.

STEAM Project:  Be a Bird!

For our STEAM project, students were tasked with building a nest for three poor robin's eggs found on the Happy Hollow playground. 

Being in the woods was so much fun!

Have a great week!

Good morning!

Hope you had a great weekend!

We had a fun May Day celebration with a dance around the May pole!

Thank you, Finn Morneweck, Mystery Reader

Farewell, Ms. Topping

Your child each composed a page of a beautiful alphabet book to thank Ms. Topping for her service in our classroom.  Ms. Topping was very touched.

Homework

Your child came home today with this homework assignment.  Please read it as your child may need some assistance.

Open House

Open House will be held in conjunction with the Family Picnic. The end of year picnic is on the calendar to start at 5:30 PM. We will have the room set up with your child's portfolio, artwork, projects etc and you are welcome to come anytime 5:00-5:30 to visit. This is a drop in Open House- feel free to come at your own convenience. There is no formal presentation, so the time you come does not matter. The Open House is paired with the Happy Hollow Family Picnic. If there is a rainout for the picnic and it moves to another date, the Open House will also move to that date. 

Have a great week!
