The kids really enjoyed learning about the American Revolution.  The museum we went to for our workshop New York in the American Revolution is having summer programming.  I am attaching the link!

WHAT A DAY!!!

Hey Parents:

What a busy day!!!


  1. Students worked on a Google Slide Show for The Bill of Rights.  Tomorrow we will share and see how well they did EXPLAINING and EXPANDING their slide.  You can check them out. Links are below under Bill of Rights Projects.
  2. Students worked on their MyOn to increase their reading. They will have a weekly assignment this summer, so check for it each Monday!
  3. End-Of-The Year GoMath Chapter 4 Test.  This reviews all the skills and topics we have covered this school year.  Some have finished.. some will finish tomorrow....

Then we had the party!  First course was a fruit salad.  Second course was chips!  Third course was Papa John's Pizza!  Fourth Course was cookies and cupcakes.  Last course was frozen ice desserts.  Such a great big meal...

I also passed out summer work and gave the kiddos a little gift bag for the summer. They got a summer book to read while on the beach... .A set of bookmarks for the book, a pair of cool shades to keep the sun off but still look cool, a little snack in case they get hungry while reading, and a SHARK pen to write in their Summer Journal that they can decorate themselves.  ENJOY!
