Grade Level Greatness

Week of 5/ 24
|
Greetings Parents,
I have returned to class. Students have had a lot on their plate with the Wax museum and various assignments in my absence. We worked on some today and they are doing well to keep pace. We will be going to Camp Schmidt on June 3rd. Permission slips are due on 5/31. Please make sure you turn these in as we want all students to participate. We are also in need of chaperones, so if you are interested, please let me know.
Students will be working on backgrounds for their Wax Museum next week. They must print out pictures at home. I will provide bulletin board paper. If you want them to use a backboard, they are more than welcome but we can not provide it.
Next week has the book fair and the 5th grade party. The week after has the field trip, promotion and the Wax museum. We have a lot going on but it is also nearing the finish line. We can do it.
Thank you as always for all you do and have a great holiday weekend.

Happening's in Libebe's Fifth
|
Happy Friday! A couple reminders, the Camp Schmidt field trip is on June 3 money and permission slips are due next Friday May 31. Almost of all of the assignments for the quarter have been entered in SchoolMax, please, encourage your scholars to pay close attention to their SchoolMax accounts to make themselves aware of what assignments they are missing. As I mentioned before a lot of grades are suffering because students are not completing their homework on Prodigy. This is a simple assignment but it is worth a substantial amount of points. Scholars also need to be aware of the Science assignments that have been given to them on Clever, these also need to be completed for students to receive proper credit.
As another reminder regarding Promotion, correction on how many tickets are allotted to each family for the event, each family will have access to FOUR tickets. Many families have expressed that they are in need of more than four tickets. Unfortunately, there aren't anymore to spare. However feel free to communicate with other families in case not everyone has use of all four tickets. Attached is more clarification on what is expected for students to wear on the day of promotion. More information will be forthcoming! Promotion - June 6, 2019 6 - 7:30p
Students need to report to the CMIT Middle High School at @5p Middle High
Have a great weekend and thank you for all of your support!

Hello CMIT Community!
I would like to thank all the teachers, staff, administration, parents and students who made me lovely cards and congratulated me on my wedding last weekend. I am so grateful to belong to such a thoughtful and caring community.
Incase some of you were wondering what students were going to make with all those paper towel tubes, well......I have finally decided!
Students started painting bright patterns and detailed designs on the tubes. I plan to take all of the painted tubes and create a large sculpture to display in the school. Thanks again to all the parents who made this possible by bringing in tubes.
Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

Makers Lab
|
Dear Parents,
These past two weeks in Makers Lab have been about electricity and how it relates to microbes. Students reviewed the concept of electricity and the difference between an open circuit and closed circuit. Also, students used their creativity to create circuits of their own. One by one, our mudwatts have started to produce electricity which means that students have completed their Mudwatt experiment successfully!
Attached are pictures of students circuit creations :)

Second Grade Den

Hello Parents,
We have come into the last few days of school and it has been an exciting journey. We have been able to watch our tigers grow and mature in so many ways. We will miss each of them so much, so before they go we will have an end of the year party. We already have a theme set and will need volunteers to help make this the best party ever. The date will be June 7th which is a Friday.
Our last field trip is May 24 to the Smithsonian Zoo located in Washington D.C. We are asking that all students and chaperones arrive by 8:00 am. Students are allowed to wear their CMIT South PE uniforms or their regular uniform on the trip. Students are not allowed to be out of school uniform.
We will also need volunteers to help take down the classroom decor and prepare the rooms for next year. Please inbox a member of the second-grade team for details.
Thank you for everything that you do to support us and your students!!!
Ms. Michelle Phillips and Mrs. Baynham

Announcements

Parents/Guardians,
The school year is almost OUT. However, one thing is constant-that is learning. As you think about where learning for our scholars will take place over the summer, you may check out - The CLF Enrichment Program summer school here on our campus. Please pick up information from the enrichment staff in the evenings.
SUMMER READING
The local library is a good place to have scholars sign up and read during the summer. The following link may help. https://www.pgcmls.info/
The following link will provide access to the 2019 summer reading list by grade level. https://ww1.pgcmls.info/website/book-lists-447
The following is a website for extra reading resources- https://www.startwithabook.org/reading-aloud
The following will help students imagine what they read, so they will comprehend more - http://www.readingrockets.org/article/picture-using-mental-imagery-while-reading
CONGRATULATIONS to our scholars who attended the district science fair. They have learned so much from you and will be ready next year to enter with new categories such as Lego and Robotics. The traditional is good, but our students are ready to move beyond traditional and explore new ideas in STEM. Three students participated at the district level. They are Hailey pilgrim (5th grader), Louel Maman (4th grader) and Marlee Gunn (4th Grader). Congrats to Marlee who was placed 3rd in her category.
End of Year Activities, Assemblies and Promotions.
Please stay tuned to dates and times for the end of year celebrations.
As we plan for next year, identify ways in which you can support us at school for the next SY. You are a part of the solution, and we value your support.

Memorial Day
|
Hello Thee CMIT Family
Hope everyone is having a great week!
This week I focused on the preparation for promotions.
However, I would like to take a moment to say thank you to all of our military families. This week was Military Appreciation Week.
Did you know?
Each year on Memorial Day a national moment of remembrance takes place at 3:00 p.m. local time.
Many people will visit loved ones and barbequing will occur, as you do so if it is possible just take a moment of silence to truly thank those who paid the ultimate sacrifice and the true meaning of Memorial Day.
Memorial Day is an American holiday, observed on the last Monday of May, honoring the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military. Memorial Day 2019 occurs on Monday, May 27.
Originally known as Decoration Day, it originated in the years following the Civil War and became an official federal holiday in 1971. Many Americans observe Memorial Day by visiting cemeteries or memorials, holding family gatherings and participating in parades. Unofficially, it marks the beginning of the summer season.
If possible take a moment to say an extra thank you to a Veteran, again thank you to all who served and are continuing to serve.
