There was information about a Class Book that we are going to publish (hard cover!). Please send the forms back by April 13 so we can claim a free copy for the class (even if you are not going to order one, we still need the form back please!) Our class book is entitled "When I Grow Up" and each child will have their own written page and their own illustrated page. We will also include a photograph of the class.

Please see the side bar for information about the Passion Projects that was sent home right after Spring Break. This week we have been working on honing in on a possible topic.

The Beyblades have gotten out of control! Today, as we were doing our end of the day routine, they were playing with them in class. I have asked that Beyblades are LEFT AT HOME TOMORROW. They are not socializing properly any more as we are finding there are arguements and they are crowded around these "stadiums". The rule now is that they are allowed to bring them outside for short recess only. This rule will have to be revisited if the problems persists.

A Lent folder went home today for you to see their promises or sacrifices. Please sign this page and RETURN THE FOLDER tomorrow as we need them in class.

Our field trip is next Tuesday already! I will send home the list of parent volunteers and their groups on Friday. IF YOUR CHILD IS NOT 9 YEARS OLD YET OR 4'9, PLEASE ENSURE THEY BRING A BOOSTER SEAT IF SOMEONE ELSE IS DRIVING THEM. If they do not have bring it, we will have to search for seats and that means the whole class is held behind.

Report cards will be sent home on Friday.
