The Countdown Begins....

It's so hard believe that our year together is winding down, but it's FAR from over! We have many exciting things to look forward to in the next couple of weeks. Remember to bring in a white, short-sleeved T Shirt on Tuesday for the tie dying activity. We can there wear our snazzy new shirts on Unity Day, which is the following week. Your band and orchestra concert is Wednesday night. Remember the beginning of the year when you just began playing an instrument? Now look you! Also this week are the "Reading Around the World" luncheons. The Indians luncheon is Wednesday, while the Browns will have theirs on Friday. Projects are also due on those days. Our big Michigan trip is also quickly approaching on June 4. Let's hope the weather cooperates with us! For some extra "fun," I think I throw in one last science test! I think everyone has truly taken a strong interest in astronomy - it's my favorite topic in science because it's constantly changing; it really is "out of this world!" And let's not forget that the season finale of "The Biggest Loser" is this Tuesday. I'm very excited to see who takes home the title - it's really anyone's game right now! Who do you think will win? Oh, don't forget to bring Kleenex in for the clap out! It's always an emotional event watching my kids walk out the doors for the final time, waving goodbye to them as the buses pull away.......Then before you know it, they sneak in at the Ice Cream Social in August to say "Hello!!!!"

Congratulations to Asiya, Shelby, Allie, Melissa, Anjali, and Renee for the great jobs they all did in the production of Hansel and Gretel. The music was fabulous, you all aced your lines, and made us all so proud! Also, so many of our students helped with the props and sets. What a great team effort! I LOVED the show! It was entertaining and enjoyable to watch. Nice job, everyone!

Finally, I want to encourage you to keep up on the blog over the summer and next year - leave comments, too! And most importantly, come and visit me! I miss you guys already! Look for my final thoughts soon.......

Have a great week everyone!
