Week 36: Science Test

We really appreciate the volunteers who came in this Friday morning to work on costumes with us. Mrs. Soans, Mrs. Hudgins, Mrs. Broika, Mrs. Wattenbarger, Mrs. Shaunessy, and Mr . Levy were instrumental in helping our children glue, paint, spell, and execute their designs for their Shakespeare characters. The costumes turned out so well and our children have not been able to take their eyes off them the whole day! Please be aware that the fabric we used is water soluble so it can be washed out if your child has it on his/ her clothing. The paints have to be heat set (placed in a dryer  or ironed) before it will be permanent.

We want to remind you that the play will be on June 13th. There was a invitation that went home on Thursday. In the past we have done this play in the MMr where we have a fully packed room. This year, we are anticipating an even larger crowd so we've added on a third performance. We anticipate many people will attend the early morning performance so we encourage anyone with a flexible schedule to try to attend the later performances. Class parents have sent out emails just to survey who might attend at which time so that we can prepare for this. We will make a DVD of the performance for each child to keep.

Here's what to expect for next week:

• We will have the Written Science test on Monday. This test will include multiple choice  and short answers based on the science work they had been doing in Ms. Gamboi's class. 
• There will be a half day on Tuesday. Dismissal will be at 12 noon. 
• School will be closed on Brooklyn Queens day this Thursday. Students will not attend. 

Have a marvelous weekend!
