4.5 Days Left Moms and Dads!

Hi there. Happy Sunday, and Happy Last Week of the 4th grade. That seems very odd to type that. Doesn't it feel as if we had just begun? I can't believe it is almost time to say goodbye.

It will be a sad day tomorrow as it will be Noah B's last day. He is traveling for his brother's graduation. We will sure miss him this week.

Tuesday is our trip to Pompey's Pillar. Hopefully we don't get rained out.

Wednesday is our make-up field day. We also have our first wiffle ball game. We will be playing against Mrs. Gleason's class. Kids need to wear their 811 shirts on this day. (I sent them home with them last Friday). Kids that turned in their 811 drawing on time to be mailed out got a shirt from them. There were a couple that didn't . They can just wear a white shirt that day to match us. Please don't let them wear them until Wednesday so they stay nice. :0)

This weekend I was able to catch some talented kids in action. Gwen played a great soccer game. She is quite quick on her feet. I also got to see Gabrielle play the piano in her recital. So pretty! (She is sitting by the window in this picture). She is going to play it again for the class tomorrow. I am betting that Gwen will also bless us with her song as well. :0)



Last week's trip to Spinners was a wonderful success and a ton of fun. We had not injuries and everyone loved their yummy treat. A HUGE thank you to all the chaperones: Morgan's Mom, Krissy's mom, Avery's mom, Gwen's dad, and Noah L's sister and dad in the truck. Without all these amazing helpers, we would have not been so successful. It was because of all of them that we never needed to use the truck. Woohoo!!! We had a GREAT surprise while at Spinners...Mrs. Pelia showed up. She was a teacher at Arrowhead last year and was very loved. She was back in town for Mrs. Powell's retirement party, and we arranged a surprise visit at Spinners! Fun times!



Speaking of surprises, Miss. Krissy surprised me on Friday with this beautiful necklace. So, so pretty. I wore it to church today and received many compliments on it. Thank you so much for such a beautiful gift Krissy! You certainly filled my bucket and made me feel very special.



We will be presenting our last inquiry projects for Lead 21 Reading this week. Kids are doing news broadcasts. Kara's dad came in on Friday and helped us out a TON! A BIG thank you to him!!! Now, the kids are ready to do their own. Kids made a list of things they needed to bring from home to use as props or their costumes. All groups need to be ready to be filmed tomorrow, even though some may not get filmed until Tuesday or Wednesday. I wish we had more time as we were invited to tour the news station and do our broadcasts from there. How cool would that have been. I just can't see it happening this week. I am so grateful for the invite form KULR8 through! Amazing!!!!

Have a wonderful, wonderful week!
