Thank you for the flowers and notes. I'm feeling quite appreciated and would like you to know how much I appreciate your support. This has been a wonderful year.
I’ve included in this newsletter some information about 5th Grade Graduation and few end of the year details. You should have received a Sign Up Genius email asking for your help with our upcoming end of the year activities earlier this week.
One of the activities that we need your help with is the Amazing Race. What is the Amazing Race? Have you seen the Amazing Race show? Well, our Amazing Race is kind of like the show. We have different stations outside and in the classrooms for students to complete as a team and earn points. It is a fun way to spend time with each other as the year is coming to an end.
If this is your first fifth grader at Zach, let me explain how Graduation works. On Wednesday, May 30th 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 go out to the front of the school for a picnic. 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 16th Annual Zach Elementary Field Day will be on Wednesday, May 30th 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.
Would you like to see pictures of the things we do in our classroom? You can find all the newsletters for the year and other fun pictures including a video of Sarah, DeLorey, Matthieu, Abby and Tom’s “Who Knew” at our classroom blog http://khalesclass.blogspot.com/.
