I still have 4 more display boards available.  Next 4 students with a dollar in hand get them.  

We will be starting to put our work on the boards tomorrow.  Please bring them to school if you haven't done so already.  

Thank you! 

A big thank you to Lisa Teruya and Trent, Art Castellanos and Madison, Maya Bacon and Victoria and little Miss Simone, Madelyn, Aileen, and Jackie for helping out with the Spring Symposium posters!  Because there were so many of us, we were able to get them done!!!

Hi all!

I was at Dollar Tree today and was able to get 10 display boards.  If you have not yet gotten one, you can buy one from me.  The first 10 students with a dollar in hand can take one home.

Our class will be going to the book fair at 9:30 tomorrow morning.  If you would like your student to have the opportunity to purchase books, please send money with them tomorrow.  The book fair will be open tomorrow until 3:00.

Things to know about :

• Wear P.E. Uniform for P.E. class, but bring regular school uniform to change into after PE
• Bring lunch in a brown sack or a grocery bag.  Make sure that your name is on it.  Don't bring regular lunch boxes.
• Bring bottled water - it's going to be warm
• Chaperones please be at school at 9:45

A few notes:

• Students wear PE uniform 
• Drivers should be at classroom by 9:50

thank you! 

This Friday is our May Crowning Mass.  It is customary for each class to have a basket of flowers to present at the altar.  Please have your student bring fresh flowers to class on Friday morning.  If you are good at arraigning flowers,(I am not good at this!)  I could use your help putting our flower basket together.  Thank you!

We are in need for more drivers for the trip to Assistencia on Thursday.  Right now we have enough seats for 23 students.  We could use one or two more drivers.  Could it be you???

we have room for one chaperone for the field trip to see Snowflake.  Please email me if you are interested.

If you are able to, please join us tomorrow at 8:45a.m. for the school rosary.  The 3rd and 4th grade classes will be presenting the Living Rosary to the school. 

Great news!!!

For our field trip to Palm Springs, Mrs. Williams changed the number of chaperones we can have!  Our class can have 10 chaperones!!!  I have received 2 emails from parents wanting to come along with us.  Please email me to let me know that you would like to chaperone this field trip. 

Permission slips went home today.

Field trip to Assistencia:  I have one parent who volunteered to drive for us.  We need enough seats to get 29 students and 1 teacher.  Please consider volunteering for this trip.  It is well worth while.  Permission slips will go out tomorrow.

We have two field trips quickly coming up:

ASISTENCIA VILLA:  Thurs, May 8th from 10:15 -11:30

This field trip was arranged just today.  We will be going to Asistencia Villa in Redlands with Mr. Turner, to visit with and entertain the residence.  This is one of the best field trips because we are truly spreading the Good News with our visit.  The residents look forward to our classes to visit each month.  I hope you will be able to join us.

Chaperones needed on Tuesday May 13th ~ all day.

The 1st - 3rd grade classes will be getting on a bus and head to the McCallum Theater in Palm Desert to see a play.  We will need 5 chaperones for this trip.  Because this is a ticketed event, there is a limit to the number of chaperones we can bring.  The first 5 people to respond by email will have the opportunity to join us. 

Of course, each driver/chaperone must have completed all requirements for volunteers. 

This year for our spring festival, the 3rd grade class will be doing an author study of Roald Dahl.  In class we will be reading three Roald Dahl novels:  The Witches, The BFG, and James and the Giant Peach.  With these three novels we will be completing various vocabulary and comprehension activities.  We will also be comparing and contrasting the stories.  Each student will need to independently read one more Roald Dahl book.  Perhaps this can be read during Easter break.  Many students have checked out a Roald Dahl book from our school library and have gotten a head start in their reading.  As the festival is on May 22nd, we will need to have our readings completed fairly soon so that we can proceed with our projects.  More information will follow after Easter break.
