WOW! Our last week of school! I can’t believe this year is almost over. I want to thank you for entrusting your child to me this year. What a blessing it has been getting to know your child and you.

We have a busy week.

On Monday, the final type-written essay (with title page and works cited page included) is due – they will also need their note cards, outline, and rough draft turned in. There is a science test and we finish reading Carry On, Mr. Bowditch.

We begin our presentations on Tuesday, they will continue through Wednesday and Thursday. Don’t forget the homemade, inexpensive souvenir. We will have a Continental Breakfast to help celebrate the end of our unit on The Revolutionary War on Wednesday morning.

The last literature test on Carry On, Mr. Bowditch will be on Wednesday.

Our final Spalding test will be on Friday.

Remember Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday are early release days. The students are out at 12:30.

I will have them clean out things and bring them home each day so by Friday it should not be too overwhelming.

I hope everyone finishes strong. If there is missing work or corrections to be made, they must be turned in this week.

I will be leaving to visit my parents on May 29^th-June 1^st. Then my husband, daughter and I will go to Jordan on June 4^th to help serve Syrians refugees there. So I will be out of the country for a couple of weeks. I will have my computer at my parents but not in Jordan, hopefully, if you need to get in touch with me, you can do it before June 4^th or it will have to wait until I get back.

Thank you for helping to make this a very memorable and special year for me!!
