This week and next!

We've had a busy week and have accomplished many great learning goals.  First, we're really excited and ready for EMES Tech Night!  Students will have an opportunity to share with family and friends three different integrated technology projects.  In our classroom we will have set-up Lego Robotic Pull-bots and Book Creator Traditional Tales.  Next door, in the Reteach classroom will be the first public viewing of our East Montpelier~Past, Present and Future video interview project!

East Montpelier Tour Field Trip, Wednesday, June 13th

We're all set for chaperones and drivers.  Thank you for helping out families!  We need to leave school by 9:10 a.m. on Wednesday morning.  We'll make seven stops on our tour, ending up at our students' future at U-32, where we'll enjoy our bag lunches in the courtyard (or in the building if raining).  Lunch will be a bit later than we are used to, so please help your child remember a good snack, we'll have time for snack along the tour!  We'll plan to be back at EMES by about 1:45ish. 

Our other stops will be:

• Morse Farm
• The Old Meetinghouse
• Fairmont Farm
• The Fire Station
• The Town Clerk's Office
• Four Corners School

We're grateful for all the community members we'll meet, greet and learn from on the tour!  This trip will happen rain or shine! 

Things to ask your kids:

• What book are you doing for your character study poster?
• What is the difference between plot and theme of a story/book?
• What are you most proud of in regard to your technology projects?
• Have you finished your June homework 3rd grade reflection sharing?

Have a great weekend, we hope to see you at tonight's TALENT SHOW!  6:00 p.m.!
