As the year draws to a close, we are frantically working on last minute projects here in 5th grade! It is a busy week. A couple reminders and announcements:

This Week:

• This week we are wrapping up the quarter with a few projects– The Gettysburg Address, a math test, the Civil War exam, the Civil War essay, and the Frederick Douglas Final Project. 
• We are also having some time to make-up other assignments throughout the week
• I have extended the due date of all Quarter 4 work to Monday, June 7th. We will have time to continue working on assignments and optional projects on Monday. 
• This Friday, (6/5) our class has decide to use a FREE DRESS day. They earned this day during from the jog-a-thon and have saved it all year!

Next week (aka the Last week of school!):

• Monday– more Q4 work time and Field Day
• Tuesday– LEGOLAND Fieldtrip! Permission slips were sent home yesterday! Please return the permission slip signed and the $16 dollars to cover the cost of the trip to me this week! Also, parent volunteer/chaperones are needed for this trip! I have a limited number of parents that we can bring into the park. If you would like to volunteer, please let me know ASAP. 
• Thursday– Kickball & Lunch at Heritage park with 4th grade!
• Friday– Last Day of School and its a HALF DAY! 12pm dismissal.
