Universal Trip

 

Parents -

Just a reminder that the students will be attending Universal Studios on Monday.  They need to be at school Monday morning between 700-715 am as buses will pull out at 730. Please report to Mrs. Baker to check in for attendance purposes.  Please remind the students to wear their green 5th grade shirts on Monday and to be sure to load up on sunscreen as the weather forecast is shooting for sunny weather. Also, please DO NOT bring any electronic devices (i.e. Ipods, game players or cell phones). They will be left on the bus unattended while we walk throughout the park.

Also, the students will be receiving $20 in Universal Studios money to be used to purchase food and/or drinks throughout the day.  However, if your child would like to purchase souvenirs at the park or you think they might need more than $20 for food/drinks, you might want to send them with some "just in case" money.

We should be arriving back at school around 500-530 Monday evening.  So, for those of you who are unable to chaperone, please make sure you or someone will be at Gorrie to pick up your child by then.

Thank you so much and I'm looking forward to Monday!

It's Been A While...

With all of the craziness of the end of the year, I have been so busy with no time to update my posts. My apologies....Here's what we've been up to 

Mini Mall 2011

Mother's Day Gift

Working on our Mother's Day gift

One more coat of paint is all it needs, buddy!

Look at that concentration!

Mini-Mall

Mini-Mall was today and boy was it a HUGE success. The students came early, ready to work and rocked the house. They were organized, professional and SOLD THEIR PRODUCTS! It was a very successful day and it went really well. I was very impressed at how well the students worked together and how well they pitched their products to the eager customers that were shopping. Great job today!

Posting Advertisements for Mini-Mall

Just a reminder-
On Monday, May 2nd, students will post their advertisements for their Mini- Mall booths, on a first come- first served basis. I HIGHLY suggest you bring any and ALL supplies needed to post your projects. In past years, students have needed duct tape to keep the posters up on the brick walls. Popular spots to display posters are: outside the group bathrooms and outside the cafeteria. Remember: Posters CANNOT be posted onto painted walls. Good Luck and Happy Hanging! Enjoy your Spring Break!
