Wow!  I can't believe that school is almost over!  We have a busy 3 weeks ahead of us.  Monday the 23rd is the last day to sign up for talent show tryouts!  Tryouts begin on Tuesday at recess, students must sign up on Monday in order to tryout for the talent show. 

Students will be working on their book buddy books this week. 

Homework for language arts is to pick a two stanza (or more poem) to memorize to recite on Thursday, May 26th, rename and explain why they picked the new title for the poem.  Everyone must be ready to present on Thursday in order to receive a 3 or better for the assignment.  Anyone not ready to present when called on will receive an incomplete (1) for the graded assignment.

Students are working in teams to complete quiz bowl study guides to prepare for the grade level wide quiz bowl on Thursday, June 9th.  Each homeroom will have quiz bowl teams competing against other teams in their homeroom in order to select one team to represent each homeroom to compete against other classes on Thursday, June 9th.  Teachers have selected each team in their homerooms.

Students should be practicing/studying spelling lists that were sent home a few weeks ago. We will begin spelling bees in the classroom over the next 2 weeks in order to come up with 5 winners to send to represent each homeroom in the grade level wide spelling bee on Wednesday, June 8th.

Happy Monday!
