for sharing his time and talents
with us. It was the perfect way to
end our week!

Please return your child’s
April Reading Calendar on
Wednesday. We will not keep a
Reading Calendar for May
because it is such a busy month.
However, please continue to read
with your child as much as
possible. Thank you so much for
your consistency in keeping up
with your child’s Reading
Calendars all year.
We will have a spelling test and a
memory verse test next Friday. The
new spelling list and memory verse
are both being sent home today in
your child’s folder.
