Our Final Week of the 2022/2023 School Year!

 

We had a wondeful last week of school.  It was also our last Spirit Week of the Year.  

Monday started our  Camping Day.  We built campfires, wrote stories and read at Camp Read-a-Lot.

On Tuesday it was wear animal print- Safari Day.  The children went to the Lionś Den to read. They traveled to the Zebra Zone for Writing then to the Giraffe Jumping Zone for Brain Breaks.  It was a fun day for all.  They even traveled to the Congo for a virtual field trip.

Wednesday was Party in the USA in honor of Flag Day.  We learned about our flag and went on a virtual field trip to Washington DC.  

Thursday the 5th graders had their moving up ceremony.  We wish them all the best as they beging middle school in the fall.

In the 4th grade we had our own little celebration with a Tropical theme day.  We learned how to do the hula and even how to say a few words in Hawaiian.

                                                                                                                                                                           

             

In our classroom we had our celebration:

Friday was our last day.  We called it Beat the Heat Day and the children had another day filled with beach day themed activities.  There was bubble blowing at recess, beach ball volley and we watched Tuck Everlasting.

This year we had 2 special women retiring.  On Wednesday we had a special assembly to honor Mrs. Marshall and Mrs. Reddy.  They gave many years of their life to educate many children.  We wish them the best and hope that they enjoy their retirement.  So Friday, was really their last day of school forever.

It has been a year of ups and downs, but in the end, we all had a great year.  I have seen growth, progress and have come to learn so much about this class. I know that they will do wonderful in 5th grade.  Thank you for a fantastic 2022/2023 school year. 

I am planning to truly enjoy my summer time.  I have vacation planned, beach days, and days to just do nothing.  It will be nice being able to get up and not rushing out the door in the mornings.  It is time to refresh, relax and recharge for our next school year, but for now it will be ME time.

Enjoy your summer and time with your family.  Stay safe and have fun.
