Last Week

     It's been a VERY busy two weeks.  We visited the Discovery Museum and had a great time.  There were so many hands on activities and we had the whole place to ourselves.  Such fun!  The museum is in the process of building a tree house.  The "tree house show" people are building it.  I love that show but not sure the real name of it.  We didn't see any of the show's stars but I can't wait to see the finished product.  It should be ready mid July. 
    
      Field day was a huge success.  Mrs. Crampton does an excellent job organizing and the parent volunteers rock.  The weather was absolutely perfect and a good time was had by all. 

     Today we walked down to see Finding Dory.  Super cute movie.  Dory remembers her mom and dad and is on a quest to find them.  She has some old and new friends helping her along the way. 

    Friday, our LAST DAY, will be here in a blink.  Remember dismissal is at 12:00.  I hope you all have a wonderful summer.  Be sure to check back here in the upcoming months.  I plan on posting some of my summer fun!

Boston

     We had a great trip into Boston.   I've never been inside the State House before and it was just beautiful.  I dreamed of living in a Beacon Hill brownstone on our walk to the Public Gardens.  The weather was perfect for a picnic and we even saw the cutest baby ducklings on our Swan Boat ride. 

     In school, we have been busy doing our end of the year district wide assessments.  We wrote about our favorite restaurant and completed both a math and language art assessment.  No one is happier than me to have those out of the way and already inputted into the computer.   One more thing checked off our end of the year to do list!

     Next Thursday we are heading to the Discovery Museum.  I used to take Kaycie there all the time when she was little but haven't been since.  I'm super looking forward to that.  Friday is field day!  Whoo Hoo!!   Remember to have your child wear his/her Wyman yellow shirts to both.  Apply sunscreen and pack a water bottle for field day!

JUNE

     Can you believe it's June?  Where did the year go?  This month is jam packed with special events and will be over before you know it.

     We have been reading like crazy.  So much fun.  We just finished 26 Fairmount Avenue by Tomie DePaola.  Mrs. Izzo suggested it and boy am I happy she did.  Fabulous.  It's a story about the year Tomie's family built their new house.  I loved it.  The students have been reading plays aloud too.  That's always a crowd favorite. The class has been reading about Pigeon.  I love him.  We drew some pictures of him.  I am excited about how great my picture came out.  I'm not very good at drawing and I think this is one of my best works of art.  Be sure to ask you child to tell you about my cat picture in 6th grade.  I am someone who doesn't remember ANYTHING so that picture clearly had a big impact on me.  I started reading about Humphrey to the class today.  He is a class hamster that is looking for adventure.  Can't wait to hear what adventures he finds.
