Happy Summer!

Hey Everyone!  Hope summer is treating you well so far!  My summer travels kicked off with a little road trip through Illinois and Missouri down to Kansas City.  It was only a 9 hour drive and I was able to break it in half by visiting some family in St. Louis.  Of course, I had to see a baseball game in Kansas City.  It was the Royals vs. Detroit Tigers and the Royals won!  After the game we were treated to a magic show and fireworks display, kind of like the ones they do at U.S. Cellular Field.  Anyway, here is a video slideshow from the final weeks of school.  I know the school year is over but our first grade year was one to never forget.  Enjoy!  

End of the Year Items

Time together in first grade is rapidly coming to a close. It has been an interesting, but enjoyable journey! We have some exciting days planned the last two weeks of school.

Wednesday, May 26^th - Olympic Day! 

Remember to wear your class t-shirt and gym shoes to school. You may also want to bring a water bottle and apply sunscreen before you come to school. The lunch options for Olympic Day will be a hot dog lunch provided to the children by the PTO, school hot lunch, or lunch from home.

Tuesday, June 1^st - House Cleaning

We ask that your child bring a garbage bag to school so that we can do a thorough clean out of our desks and lockers.

Wednesday, June 2^nd - Class Celebration 

We invite your child to bring a favorite board game to school. Additionally, your child should bring a handful of their favorite books as we are going to enjoy a read-in/game day together! As an added bonus, the children will have a pizza party snack in the afternoon. Please note this pizza party is not a substitution for a healthy lunch, merely a snack to enjoy together in the afternoon.

Thursday, June 3^rd - Last Day of School 

Remember this day is only one hour, 7:55am-8:55am.

I hope you and your children are looking forward to the final days of school.  It's hard to believe it's already here, but the summer time awaits us all.  Thanks for reading and being involved in the Room 108 experience.  See you on the blacktop!
