A Peek At What We are Doing in Fifth Grade

Thank you for all the kind notes and beautiful flowers for Teacher Appreciation Week.  I have enjoyed the pleasure of being your child's fifth grade teacher.

If this is your first fifth grader at Zach, let me explain how graduation works. On Wednesday, May 29th at 10:30, we have a graduation ceremony in the gym. The doors open for seating at 10:00. The gym is usually quite full so I recommend you get here by 10:00 to get a seat. Although it is a special occasion, we don’t require students to dress up, just dress nice. After graduation, we move out to the modulars for a picnic lunch. We’ll provide cake and lemonade, you just need to provide the picnic lunch. After the picnic, the kids go inside and change into shorts, t-shirts, and tennis shoes for Field Day which starts at 1:15.

The 17th Annual Zach Elementary Field Day will be on Wednesday, May 29th from 1:15-3:15 pm for kids in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. Parents are welcome to come and watch, but Mr. U is looking for some volunteers. Volunteering would include helping set up, take down, and running an event. Set up will begin at 12:30pm for both days. If you are interested in helping out, please contact Mr. U at brentu@psdschools.org. The more volunteers we get, the more smoothly field day will run.

You can find all the newsletters for the year and other fun pictures including a video of MacKayla’s “Who Knew” at our classroom blog http://khalesclass.blogspot.com/.
