End of the Year Celebration/ Homework/up comming Field trips

For Saturday: please bring your child with their clothes on. They need to be in their class by 10am Insha Allah.

Homework:  Bring a large zip lock bag.  We will be getting ready for our departure and I have collected several things from different students and I will be giving them back.  All next week I will not be giving any homework. However, I will be sending a package for the summer.

Some of the students have borrowed books from the class library please bring them  back before Friday if possible. If you do come across any of the school books you may return them in September or drop them off in the office.  I will start to send some the students work next week.

If you have not yet send the money for the field trip please do so by Monday 20th. I wanted to let you know that the principal is well aware of the field trips that the students will be involve in, I apologize as we missed to have the principal signature on the form before sending it home.

On Thursday, the grade 2's and 6 would like to take the students to Britannia Park to have their end of the year party.    I spoke to Principal Noha and she has agreed. We will be walking to the park the two options are:
1. the students can get dropped off at the park in the morning and I will be there to meet them and only walk back to school to be pick up at 3:30
2. dropped off at school but they will need to walk back and forth.
This trip has been done by the school with lower gardes before and it has been successful.
This field trip will provide the students with the opportunity put into practice many things they learned throughout the year.  We will not only have fun but I will also be doing mini lesson based on the activities.

 I will be sending the form next week.  I will need at least 5/6 volunteers to have a safe and fun trip.
I did talk to the students about it and they like the idea.  Please send me your input or comments at aragon.jessica1@gmail.com this weekend in order for me to make the proper arrangements.  I will also be send you an email regarding the students party. 

Report cards will be given on Friday June 24,2011.
