Monday June 10th 2018
Good Monday morning! Wasn’t that a beautiful weekend! It was so nice to be
outside with my family, playing in the sunshine. I hope everyone enjoyed the
gorgeous weather.

While we were basking in the heat and sun all weekend, the weather is still
fluctuating. There is rain in the forecast this week. Please ensure that your
children have the appropriate clothing for the say.  Also, for the nice days, the
students need cool clothing, water and sunscreen. If you send in some
sunscreen, the students will be given the time to apply it themselves.
Please, do not send in any spray cans of sunscreen! I will always encourage
the students to go and drink water and they are always welcome to fill up
their water bottles.
So, as we are now into our second week of June, we are looking very quickly
at the end of the year.  I cannot believe how fast this year has flown by. I find
the years are flying by at an increasingly fast pace. It must be a testament to
the fun we are having!
A few reminders as we finish up the 2018-2019 school year.
I will begin to send  home some of the students' books and folders.
Please take a look at the contents, discuss them with your child.
They are now yours to keep!  We are still working on important things in
class, but these are the books we no longer need and I really wanted
you to get a chance to see the amazing things that your children have
done this year.  If you have any questions, please let me know.

There will be no more new Word Wall Words coming home for this year.  
We will spend the month of June reviewing the many words that we have
learned this year already.  Thank you so much for your dedication and
commitment to assisting the students with their new words each week.  
Their practice and hard work has certainly paid off!

Your child’s report card and IEP will be sent home from their homeschool
during the last week of June.
Interviews will not be held at the end of the year.  
I am more than happy to sit down with you and discuss your child’s
progress before the documents are sent home.  If you would like to
schedule a meeting to talk about your son/daughter and the amazing
work they have done this year, please do not hesitate to call SJA or
write a note in the agenda and we can arrange a meeting.

The students are working harder than ever to get ready for the end
of the school year! There is still tons of writing, reading and learning
happening. We are working hard at vocabulary connections, story
retelling, letter sound deletion and sounding words out. We are taking
all of the skills we have learned this year and we are putting them to
practice.
We used some BeeBots last week as a fun way to practice some things
we have been learning.
Ask your child about his/her new programming skills!

As is tradition in the PLC, we will planning an end of the year party! We
ike to have the students input into what they would like to do/bring for
the party. We will be discussing these details in the days to come and
I will let you know what we have come up with!

Thank you again for your time. Stay tuned for more information in the
next few weeks and, as always, do not hesitate to send me a note or
give me a call if you have any questions!
