SPECIAL NOTES:

    These weeks continue to fly by!!!  I am trying to keep the children focused and interested, which is the reason I saved the story of the week MINNIE THE MAMBO MOSQUITO.  Ask your child to tell you about her!  I have told the children, but I also want to share with you why one word is NOT included on the School Notes page...the word is unacceptable to the web site, and for several years, I have been kicked off the web page for using it!  As we begin to "wind down" this year, please help me keep them on tract.  We will have a vocabulary and word wall test this week, as well as homework as usual.  Our field day is Friday, so be sure to dress them accordingly, and if you said you would send a lunch from home, PLEASE DO!  I appreciate your help in continuing to make school a priority.  Have a good week!
