Well, What Kind of Week Will We Have This Time?

Hey, 5B,

Last Sunday I titled the blog post "Ready for a Full Week?"  Well, that was a joke, wasn't it?!  I don't know what to expect this week.  I KNOW we will be getting out of school early on Wednesday, but that's because of teacher working time - not weather:)  Remember....May the Force be with .....  ________!

I hope your weekends went well.  It sounds like many of you had things going on with HOMEWORK (or at least some reading and work on the iPads), wrestling meets, basketball games, birthday parties, riding horses, hanging out with friends, or just relaxing at home.  

Well, rest up for a full day on Monday.  Not only we will have to get back into the swing of things with a full day and new math groups for fractions, but 5B will be TEACHERS to our 1st grade buddies!  Yep, we are heading down to Mrs. Kuhn's class to help them complete a movie trailer for their reading theme, Communities.  I have each of you paired up with a buddy.  A few of you have 2 5th graders together because they have less students than we do.  I'm excited to share with you your partners and explain your job and how to get back down in "1st grade mode".  

With tomorrow being such a busy, full day, we still can't forget to celebrate someone very special.  Click on the picture I have below.  

It should take you to a list of interesting facts (That's a fact, Jack!) about him.  To prove you checked the blog, read through the list with your family (or alone if you're family isn't around).  Choose 1 from the list you think is interesting.  Add it to the TodaysMeet Link HERE.  I'd like to see what most people think is most interesting about this historic man.  

I want to give a GINORMOUS HOOT and HOLLER to Shane Burke (a former 5B Baby and cousin to Justin) who reads the blog still after he has moved on and saw that 5B has been hungry lately, so he brought a big bag of cereal for us to snack on.  HOW SWEET?!!!  See, that's why our 5B Family is so special.  Even when kiddos move on and get older, they still remember 5B!  Please be sure to thank Shane any chance you get - in person, a note, email, etc.  

Get rested up for a BIG, BUSY day on Monday!
