One and a Half more days!!!

Oh my goodness we are almost there. The bike ride was perfect today!! We were able to take a long ride down the bike path and then go to the park for lunch and fun! Back to school for a little wiffle ball action and then started to clean up for the end of the year! Wow!

Tomorrow is very busy. We start with wiffle ball right off the bat. Have your kids talked to you or shown you their character reflection rubrics. While they are playing ball another student is watching them and then fills out a rubric based on the six traits of character and how they apply to baseball. Then the next day they have to work on doing a better job on one of the traits. Very cool to see them accept constructive advise without getting defensive or making excuses for their actions. COOL! Then we have the school wide awards assembly for citizenship, conflict manager, and wish participation. Right after that we will have our goodbye 5th grade party in Room 7. Each student will be addressed and given a special treasure. Parents are encouraged to come. Then lunch, hopefully with their parents too! Then pack up our final backpacks and off to Bug Club Assembly. That is at 1:15. Hope to see the parents of the winners there as well. Then a little more fun and away we go. 

Don't forget to pick up kids or make arrangements BEFORE school on Friday for our 11:45 dismissal time. Summer here we come! I hope that I see all of you out and about this summer. Em and I hit a lot of Mustang games so look for us in the standing, grassy, or cheap seats. Talk to you one more time tomorrow!
