A Peek At What We are Doing in Fifth Grade

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 all come 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.

We finished our 6-word memoirs this week. You may see a video of our memoirs on our classroom blog.
