Mrs. Abbott's Dream Team

Dear Families, The Lansing field trip is this Friday, March 22nd. The approximate time is 8:30 AM-6:45 PM. Please try to be prompt in picking up your child at the school that evening. We should be there around 6:15-6:30. We will be walking everywhere. Please make sure your child wears comfy shoes and dresses for the weather. All students will need a sack lunch and a drink. We will stop at a rest area on the way to Lansing and on the way home for bathroom breaks and the snack provided. Thank you to all families who donated the trail mix items. Chaperones will need to follow the bus to the rest areas to assist in keeping our students safe. We recommend no more than $15 for the museum gift shop. We are looking forward to this fabulous opportunity and experience! Our class received the most RC points for 4th grade again this week with over 250 points! The students asked for another Read In because of all of the success in reading that is going on in our classroom. So, I decided if our class meets 150 or more points this week and the following week they can have another Read-In on the 1/2 day Friday, March 29th. Keep up the great work on the nightly reading activities as well. Dear 4th Grade Parents,      We are excited about our program!  Next Tuesday afternoon we will perform our “America on Recorders” for our school and you are invited to come at our family performance at 6:00 p.m. that evening.Please help your student remember to wear red, white and blue that day. Looking forward to seeing you and sharing our beautiful recorder players. Sincerely, Rachelle McElroy Have a fabulous week!
