Dear Parents,
Tomorrow is the long awaited (good or bad) day for...... PIG DISSECTION! We will be dissecting for the next 2 weeks or so. If you ever want to stop by, feel free! Monday, Tuesday and Thursdays we have science first thing in the morning (8:30-9:10). Wednesdays, I decided to switch up the schedule a bit and have the dissection at the end of the day instead of right after lunch. (Hoping to avoid any upset tummies...) I am sure the kids would love to share their learning with you if you want to stop in at some point.
Please help your child remember that he/she needs to be preparing for the upcoming "pig test". It is scheduled for May 18th. Each student received the study guide at the beginning of the pig unit, just after spring break. I expect great things from the students because there has been plenty of time to prepare.
News articles are, also, still due this quarter. The 7 articles are due May 13th.
I hope you are enjoying the spring weather!
Many blessings,
Kim

Dear Parents,
What a great time was had by all on Saturday night! Thank you so much for all who helped out with the planning and carrying out of such an event! :) I hope you all had as much fun as I did! I saw lots of smiles and high fives!
This week is one of the last "normal" weeks of school before we begin end of the year craziness! We will finish up our virtual pig dissection on Tuesday at the end of class. We will complete a skeletal lab on Wednesday and a muscle lab on Thursday. April 27th is the day we begin the actual pig dissection. The students seem to be getting anxious about it!
Enjoy the spring weather and let's finish the year strong!
Many blessings,
Kim

Dear Parents,
On the eve of the HOPEFUL Badger win, I sit down to write the update! Regardless of the outcome, I am so proud of this team. The men on the team have provided such a great example for our young people both in Madison and nation wide. I hope you've had a chance to watch some of the interviews posted by the Badgers; they are funny, tasteful and honest.
OK, this week we are back at it! There are only 7 Mondays left in the year, so we need to buckle down and stay focused on finishing strong! Here's the upcoming week:
Tuesday: We are starting our Virtual Pig Dissection (VPD). The students will work at their own pace with this part of the unit being completed by the end of class on April 21st. This is easily doable, so no need to be concerned about not finishing in time.
Wednesday: We celebrate the resurrection of Christ in our "Easter" mass. I hope you are able to join us at 8:45 in the church.
Thursday: The 5th graders will join the middle school students in "a day in the life of a middle schooler". The shadow day is one that gives the 5th graders some real hands-on experiences of "living at the other end of the building".
Friday: Just a regular day for us! :)
