Mrs. Cummings' Classroom Blog

Hello and welcome to our classroom blog! I am so excited to get the year started. We are going to have so much fun and learn along the way! :) Every Friday (or once a week) I will update this classroom blog which will act as not only our weekly newsletter, but also a means of communication between home and the classroom for updates, announcements, reminders, field trips, needed supplies, volunteer opportunities and so much more! This is going to a very important website and my main source of communication that I would like you to check OFTEN! If you do this, I guarantee that you will be "in the know" and up to date on all classroom happenings and news. I am hoping this will help bridge the communication gap between school and home! Thank you for taking the time to check this blog out and remember to bookmark this page! Enjoy your last few days of summer with your kiddos and I look forward to working with you this school year to give the best possible educational exper...

Report cards will be sent home with your student on the last day of school, June 5, 2015. Please take a minute or two to look through the manilla envelope as there is A LOT of information to watch for as well as good resources for summer learning opportunities. I highly recommend utilizing all that is offered to ensure that your student keeps up their hard work (with a little play mixed in there of course, that's what summer is for, right?). This is SO important! The "summer slide" is the hardest thing to bounce back from. I would hate to see my students, who might I add are all either at or above grade level in both ELA and Math, dip below grade level because they didn't read or practice math for THREE WHOLE MONTHS! Please keep this in mind. I and next year's teacher thank you immensely!! :)

Please remember to send your son or daughter with at least $5 for a Dairy Queen treat as we will be walking there tomorrow with Mrs. Marienfeld's and Mrs. Johnson's room. Thank you! :)

Monday: #1 Hamburgers     or #2 Chef Salad Tuesday: #1 Pizza Dippers       or #2 Deli Sub Sandwich Wednesday : #1 Chicken Nuggets      or #2 Turkey Sandwich Thursday : #1 Hotdog      or #2 Turkey Sandwich Friday : #1 Pizza      or #2 Deli Sub Sandwich

Please have your student bring an extra bag to put his or her belongings in after we clean out our desks and lockers. This will probably happen next Tuesday. Thank you.

Please take a look at the 'upcoming events' tab on the home page of this blog (top of this page) for the upcoming events that we will be participating in next week. It is important that you are aware of the happenings in room 406. :)Thank you!

Please remember that we will be going to the Scheer's Lumberjack Show on Wednesday 5/27. We will be leaving the school at 10:20am and arriving back around 1:00pm. You student should have a lunch either with the prepared at home or should have turned in a slip to have a lunch prepared for them at school. Thank you!
