Howdy all and welcome to the end of the end. We spent our morning wrapping up "The Great Horn Spoon". The kids may or may not have catch up material with their study packets. They were given ample classroom time to complete the work, but some students chose to use their time unwisely.
The same can be said for our last unit in science, The States of Matter. Both packets are due on Friday.
Oh man, we started painting our mural this afternoon. I gave fair warning about clothing, so be forewarned. A few of the kids are looking a bit sloppy.
Friday brings us a few things. We will be seeing Mr. Sweet's class play at 8:15, and then walking with our buddy class to the beach at 9. Kids can wear comfortable clothing for the beach, but we will not be going in the water. Parents are welcome to come along on either adventure. We will be returning to school prior to lunch, so there is no need to pack a sack lunch to take. Kids can bring frisbees and the like to play with, but they will be repsonisible for carrying them there and back.
Thanks to the friends and families who joined me at Cole's BBQ last night. A fun time was had by all.
Resepctfully, Mr. B

Wednesday & tonight
Howdy all. Just a quick reminder that tonight is the Cole's BBQ. I'll be there from 5:30 - 7:30 serving up food and drinks for all those that come by.
The kids and I are in the final stretch of "By the Great Horn Spoon". We have two chapters that we will finish tomorrow and then complete the study packets by Friday.
We finished our reading of "The Prophet of Yonwood" today. Kids will have the opportunity to take Accelerated Reader quizzes on both books Thursday and Friday.
We are having fun experimenting with states of matter. Today we experimented with the ideas of buoyancy and fun floating and sinking various classroom items. The kids will be quizzed on states of matter this Friday, but the test will be open book.
Please remember that we will start painting our mural on Thursday and that kids should have a tshirt with them that can get stained without them getting busted for it.
Have a groovy day, Jeff

Tuesday and beyond
Howdy all and welcome back from what was hopefully a restful holiday weekend. We are in the final stretch. The kids know it. You know it. I know it. Who's the most excited?
Red Folders have Friday's math final and assorted work in them. The math finals were impressive! Really glad that the kids pulled it out on this one.
WEDNESDAY night (tomorrow) is our Cole's BBQ Night. Come on by between 5:30 and 7:30 and enjoy a good meal with classmates. (I'm not buying, just so you know.) Invites are in the Red Folders.
We'll be painting our mural on Thursday and Friday. Bring that junky tshirt please.
Due this Friday: Completed "Great Horn Spoon" packets, States of Matter science packets and California practice books. The class will have one final science quiz on Friday, one final comprehension quiz on "The Prophet of Yonwood" and one final "Great Horn Spoon" quiz.
Kids will have until Friday to take Accelerated Reader quizzes, and will be quizzing on "Yonwood" and "Horn Spoon" on that day.
Finally, I am still awaiting permission slips from several students for both the beach clean-up on Friday and the KOA trip next Tuesday. Please make life easier for all of us and get them in now.
Respectfully, Mr. B
