Dear South Huckleberry Families, We are off to a great start with two students having presented their Independent Project today. For the next two weeks we will be busy watching and presenting. Practicing at home in front of others is a great way to prepare your child. Reassuring him/her by saying things like- “You are so prepared, go in with confidence” - helps remind him/her that being prepared is what leads success. We’d appreciate if you stay through all presentations when come to watch your child present, if possible. I know that some may need to leave immediately for work, which I understand. Watching all presentations lets the person upfront know that what he/she is doing is important and valued. While IPs are going on, the Huckleberry classes are finishing up the unit on bees. Today was a very special day because Ms. Fety’s husband, Evan, who is a beekeeper, came and talked to the classes on the subject. All dressed in his official outfit, the students listened as he spoke about the importance of bees and the job of the keeper. As you can imagine, the students were full of questions. NIghtly reading continues. If your child is not bringing books home nightly it may be because he/she isn’t turning them in when he arrives in the morning. Please check you house for classroom books or library books. The last day for library checkout is this week. All library books are due by May 30th. Classroom books can be returned by that date also. Please help us keep our classroom and library books available for other children. The weeks ahead will be filled with fun and excitement as our students get ready to move on. It’s a great time of year! Mrs. Harris
