5th Grade Visit to Lakeview
Our fifth graders will visit Lakeview on Monday to tour the school building, learn a little about the life of a 6th grader, and ask questions.
Lakeview Book Check-Out
Each year, students in 5th grade have an opportunity to check out paperback books from the Lakeview library for the summer. Mrs. Hayes will meet with our class on Wednesday, May 25th to share her guidelines for summer check-out, and hopefully students will leave with a small collection of great summer reads!
Surprise Baby Shower a Success!
Thank you to all who contributed to Mrs. Sanchez's baby shower. She was quite surprised to see that our Social Studies lesson plans were just a "cover up" for her shower. The book of advice from the students is something she will treasure. A special thanks to Mrs. Youngfelt for helping me plan the event and baking cupcakes, Mrs. Crane for supplying us with a delicious spread of treats, and Mrs. Peterson for sending in drinks to enjoy.
