Reminders
* All staff, please do not enter the parking lot through the exit lane. We have numerous parents complaining about this.

* Please take down your door decorations from Kindness week. They are a fire hazard. 

* Due to the Book Fair, we will not have Library classes this week.

* All testing must be done and entered into CITE 6 by May 1 at the latest. We will have a CITE 6 data entry help session on April 25 before school – only take the days after this if you feel comfortable entering data on your own.


* Two 5th grade students want to do something nice for our police officers. They came up with the idea of thanking them with 'Cards for Cops.' If you would like your students to participate, please have them make cards this week during Book Buddies or rolling start. The students will collect them on Friday.

Kindie Technology CoTeaching
Kindergartners researched African Animals using the app, Epic Books this week. They were so excited to independently access just right books and video clips to build schema about different African Animals. As students analyzed the digital resources they determined importance and recorded their new learning through pictures and words on chart paper and individual think sheets.
