A note should be coming home at the end of the week giving parents more information about the events on our Celebration of Learning day. I will need a classroom parent who would be willing to help at school between 3:45-4:30 p.m. If you are willing and able, please give me a call!
COMPLIMENTS
Where to start? First, let me pay the entire class a compliment! They were on their very best behavior at the Grand Rapids Symphony concert this week! The music was amazing and our students were the best behaved there. What a beautiful concert. A wonderful way for your family to enjoy the Grand Rapids Symphony is the summer
Picnic Pops series. We have attended for several summers. These evening concerts are outside at Cannonsburg Ski Area in July and have wonderful activities for children. It's a great way to introduce children to the symphony!
Today, the 5th graders received a compliment from Senora Holmes. She told me the 5th graders were hard-working, getting work completed every week and paying close attention to their assignments and making sure they were being completed to the very best of their ability.
THANK YOU ABBY AND RACHAEL!
Today we had the pleasure of meeting Abby Phillips and Rachael Kutney--both players on the Hope College Women's Basketball Team. They were our guest readers today--reading some great children's books and then happily answering a litany of questions from the class. "What's your major? How old are you? What's your favorite restaurant? Do you like Bananas? What's your favorite movie?" These questions were asked and MANY MORE! When they needed to leave, the class wished them the best of luck at their Friday Sweet Sixteen game. (I think the kids would have continued to ask MORE questions if given the chance!)
