SIGHTS AND SOUNDS & JAVON SMITH
~Thank you to all the students and parents of Room 71 for Teacher Appreciation Week! I can't wait to get to Barnes & Noble.
~Don't forget to order your spaghetti dinners for American Grandstand on May 22nd! Dinners are only $5...and that includes bread, salad, and huge heap of spaghetti! If you have never been to American Grandstand.....you are missing the highlight of the Beauclerc social calendar.
~CONGRATULATIONS to Javon Smith. Javon was recognized as being in the top 5% of students academically in Jacksonville based on his report card grades and test scores! Mrs. Laymon and the ChorusMs. Hollaway and Mr. G relax to the tunes of the Orff EnsembleOur Top 5% Man sings his heart outJohnathan J. gets his groove on!
~Everyone has paid for Universal Studios! I am proud of everyone in Room 71 for getting their money in on time. We rock! Now, if you time it right you will be able to see Mrs. Peck and Mrs. Whitelaw ride the Hulk like they did last year....it wasn't pretty!
~We are enjoying our current novel, The Great Gilly Hopkins by Katherine Patterson. It is the story of a foster child who is angry at the world and is in search of the mother she has never known. We are using this novel to practice the strategy of synthesis (putting all the pieces together). Gilly is angry and has a mouth most motehrs would not be proud of..... Mrs. peck gets to read these parts! It is so unlike her, but we get a kick out of it.
