Friday Update

Don't forget, tonight from 5:00-8:00 is the Butlerville Spring Carnival. It should be a lot of fun. Don't forget to check out all the "Bid and Buy" baskets. Our class booth is the Plinko booth, so stop by and play, and check out the poster created by Michael and Kate. Thanks again to all the volunteers who are working in the booth!
We are continuing to work on Charlotte's Web, which the children are enjoying. We have also been reading the book "Holes", by Louis Sachar, aloud. The children really want to watch the movie that was made from the book. It has a very interesting story line and a good message. It is rated "PG" because of some mild violence. If you do not want your child to watch the movie "Holes", please send a note in letting me know. If I do not receive negative responses from any parents, we will be watching it next week. So be sure to let me know if you do not want your child to watch this movie.
Also remember that Friday, May 30th is "Take Your Child to Work Day". Send in a note, stating your child will be going to work with you, or another family member, and they will be excused from attending the last day. The honors assembly, talent show, and report cards will all be on Thursday.
We will be having our pizza party for the Super Star Readers, this coming Tuesday. I need a parent volunteer that would be able to pick up the pizzas for me and bring them to school by 11:05. I will be ordering from either Angilo's in Blanchester or Coomer's Market in Pleasant Plain. If you can pick up the pizza's for me, please let me know no later than Monday.
Next week, the biography speeches start. We will be having them on Wednesday morning and Thursday afternoon. Please be sure your child is ready to give their speech. Some helpful hints are coming home today, about how to do their best and earn bonus points on the project.
This week's "busiest bee" was Michael. Thanks for a great job on your spelling test, starring as Bradley in the play, and improving your behavior. Great Job, Michael!!
Have a nice weekend!
