Hi All,

Happy Mother's Day; I hope you all spent the day in exactly the way you wanted!

This week we are returning to a regular schedule. Students will begin their days with RTI. Each of the groups will be finishing up the year reading a novel. We are also reading Little House in the Big Woods in all of the homeroom classes.

This week's homework packet will include spelling, but it will look different from previous spelling homework. There are fewer words, and no sentences. I will go over the words and concept with the kids on Monday, so they should understand my expectations. There will not be any math practice on the packet, as we will continue with Rhymin' Times attached to the nightly math homework.

On Thursday, we have Open House at Rio. Please come by the classroom and check things out.

Finally, on Friday we have our final field trip, to the Agricultural History Museum at the SCC Fairgrounds. Thanks to all who have volunteered to drive. I will be in touch if your driver information needs updating.

Have a great week,
Carroll Mayer
