An Exciting Week

We are learning a lot in our Non Fiction book clubs!!  We have learned that deer do not lay eggs that they have their babies live, that dolphins can swim fast with help from the wave, that some bees are green, and that honey bees don't sting.  We also learned what seals eat.  Lots of interesting stuff!!!  We will finish up this unit by creating a poster to go with our topics!!  I will be sure to post pictures of those!!
 
Thank you so much for those of you who were able to participate in special persons day!!!  The class was very excited to have a special person to share their reading skills to.  Here are a few familiar faces from the day:
 
 
 



Surprise Mail:  Remember to start asking friends and family to write a note to your child to open on surprise day.  Our Surprise Day celebration is May 25th.  You can have them mailed to the school with attention to Mrs. Gilde and your child's name on it as well.  The address is:  107 E. Maple Street, McBain, MI 49657.  This is a really fun day and students are really surprised when they open their mail.  Last year I even had a little girl cry because she felt so lucky to get mail from her grandpa.
