Hi All,

I can't believe it's our last full week of school this year!

The kids only homework responsibility is to memorize their Famous Artist speech for Friday's Wax Museum, and put together a costume. We will also be practicing the speeches in class. Kids who don't have their speeches memorized will still be performing, but will have their grade lowered. In addition, kids' costumes must be school appropriate. Many teacher from other grades have shared their enthusiasm for bringing their classes to see the kids perform.

Other than the Wax Museum, we'll continue to enjoy Esperanza Rising and Golden Gulch. Kids will be able to take AR tests all week, and may even take them during the final week. However, I will need to complete report cards by next Tuesday, May31st, so last minute AR tests may not be accounted for on the report card. Despite this, kids will have the satisfaction of knowing they've reached their goal.

Have a great week,
Carroll Mayer
