Mr. Wellna Weekly Update - May 19th-25th
We have ourselves a 4 1/2 day week this week! The biggest thing for 6th grade this week is clearly our chapel on Wednesday. PLEASE read over your child's lines with them. We are loud enough, but often too fast and need to slow down. We will be practicing on Monday and Tuesday during social studies. Please feel free to join us Wednesday at 8:25.
PICNIC LUNCH FORMS: Sheets were sent home. Return them if you want a hot dog lunch on Track and Field Day.
SINGING IN CHURCH on May 19th for Pentecost. Please put that on your calendars!
ROPES COURSE permission slips have come out. Please get those back in as soon as you can!
Eaton’s Pizza Reading Program: (Optional) Keep marking for your May calendars!

PE
Welcome back to PE! We have some great activities planned this year.
Reading
We will continue to read Esperanza Rising this week. Much of our discussion will focus around thinking about who is control/holds the power, and how those who are below them respond. There will be some nightly reading homework, so please be sure that your child has access to paper/sticky notes/note cards to complete their nightly stop-and-jots.

Social Studies
Well this week, we will practice our chapel a few times. Then, we will be ending the year with a little Scrapbook Project. It will be great.
Vocab
None! We are finished with vocab for the school year. 😄 We will say a final farewell and turn in our books on Monday.
