I've been trying this one out on people all day! 😂 You're welcome!
Field Day
Thank you for your patience as we've moved this date around a few times. I think we've landed on a winner! Field Day will run on Friday, May 26. I will arrange the buses. Please pencil in 11:00-2:00 but I have yet to receive confirmation of that timeframe.
Tulip Time Week
Some calendars that were sent out prior to Tulip Time making their parade decision state otherwise, but here's the truth of the matter: We have a full day of school on Wednesday, May 10. Thursday is a half day for the parade. If the parade is cancelled due to rain, the whole thing is just kaput. No make up parades on Friday.
We're Flipping Out!
Thursday, May 11, our half day for Tulip Time is a FLIPPED day. Please note that early elementary students have encore on Thursday, May 11. And then, if I haven't lost you yet, Friday, May 12 is a Thursday schedule. Sometimes this feels like we're at the funny farm rather than the Rose Park Ranch!
Faith Statements
As you begin to have your faith statements completed, please clip them together and pass them to me when I float by. We'll put them in each child's cum folder.
The level that you are putting into the Q4 data spreadsheet is a student’s INDEPENDENT LEVEL and this is the same running record that you will hand in to me which will then be passed along to next year’s teacher.
If you have been putting INSTRUCTIONAL LEVELS on your progress reports to parents, you can just continue that for the last report card–the reason for this is that if you have not communicated to your parents the difference between the instructional and independent level, then just putting the independent level could make them panic as it will most likely be lower than the instructional level. We will also review this next year as well and discuss what we want to report on our progress reports in terms of students and their reading progress.
MAP Testing
The final week of MAP testing and Delta Math opens the week of May 8.
