Pardon the Interruption

Is anyone reading this?

Sorry I missed posting yesterday. I am not feeling quite myself. Whatever bug is going around is trying to get me too. Yesterday the middle school had almost 100 kids out! Our building was around 75. Remind your children to wash their hands!


This week we will finish reading From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler and uncover the mystery of the statue Angel. Students will take the computer literacy skills and comprehension tests on Thursday. They will also finish work on their scrapbooks that go along with the book.

In science we continue our study of the weather. What a lot of unusual weather we have had over the past few weeks to observe! The water cycle and clouds are this week's focus.

Tomorrow is our field trip to the hockey game. Don't forget to pack your lunch. Concession stands will be open, but you know sporting concessions-the items are usually pretty expensive!

This week is count week, so be here to be counted! Students who have perfect attendance this week will earn some sort of treat from Ms. Davis on Friday. If your child must be absent, be sure to send in a note explaining the absence.

Due this week: spelling homework, homework packet
