Yes folks!  You read it right!  June 1st!  We are officially in the final month of school, and the final months of this class attending Harkins Elementary School.  In four weeks they will be officially middle schoolers.  Scary! We have another busy week!  We kick off Monday with the final of the math assessments.  We will all be glad when this is over and done with.  Mr. Flynn is very pleased with what he has seen thus far.  Way to go boys and girls! Tuesday, of course, is our Harkins Has Healthy Hearts walk at Strawberry Marsh this week.  Please meet in the parking lot of Miramichi Mall at 3:45 to start the walk right at 4pm.  Hump Day is Skipping Club at Nelson Rural School gym with Mrs. Barry, but I will be there too if anyone is interested in coming along.  Mrs. Barry attended the National Skipping Competition in Moncton the other weekend and has some great things to share.  It is from 4-5pm.  Bring your skipping rope and water bottle because it is a great work out!  As well on Wednesday, I am finally going to get in our Science test on the Digestive System.  It was post-poned due to assessments.  I didn't want to overwhelm my class with all the testing. Thursday, we are spending the day with our Croft Buddies.  We will be going over there in the morning and then in the afternoon they will be coming over and we will be viewing their projects as well we will be having a visit and Mr. McGinn who has went to Egypt and is going to present what his experience was. Friday, I am in Moncton for meetings, but you will have a supply teacher for the day.  You will be continueing on your humor unit in literacy, and then working hard on Ancient Greece!  Like I said, we have a very filled week, and we will from here on out.  Get lots of rest, and come prepared to work!

Welcome back after an amazingly beautiful long weekend.  I hope you are all well rested and ready for the huge week that we have ahead of us.  Time is ticking and with only five weeks to go, the crunch is on! Our week will start off with Tuesday having a presentation from NB Ambulance.  Remember Tuesdays are also our "Harkins Has Healthy Hearts" walk and this week's walk will be at French Fort Cove.  Meet there at four o'clock and get a great work out, weather permitting! Wednesday follows with a great treat from the MVHS Leadership Class coming to perform and teach our class some dances.  This is always such a fun time, I know all of you will love this!  Bring your dancing shoes! Finally, on Thursday, the ASSESSMENTS arrive!  Get lots of rest, eat a nutritious breakfast and come prepared to rock that test.  Mr. Flynn has been working extremely hard with all of my students to prepare them for this test.  I know they are going to do wonderful! Thursday is also the day for our Spring Dinner at the cafeteria and the Heritage Fair at the Eco Center.  Logan and Shelby will be going to represent our class with our Titanic Documentary that everyone worked so incredibly hard on.  Good luck grade five!!!! Friday, already?  I know.  Short week, but on Friday we have the pleasure of Mrs. Barry coming to show us some great games in the gym.  I know I am excited for her visit!  What about you? Enjoy your week everyone.  It is a big one!

Another five day week ahead of us!  Yipee!  That means we can learn lots this week! First thing Monday is the launch of the "Go for 42" program that has been in our school system for quite some time now.  The kids are asked to walk or run 2km/night for the next four weeks and then on June 24th they will meet at the Civic Center to finish their last 2ks of their marathon.  Hopefully we will have lots of participation from this class.  I know I will be there with my own children, so come and run with us. All week, whenever possible, we will be working on our Social Studies projects since they are all due on Friday.  If you are finished your projects all ready, don't worry, I have other things in store for you. Don't forget about the "Harkins Has Hearthy Hearts" walk this week on Tuesday.  Great time to get in your 2km for the Mango Go for 42!  They meet at Harkins this week to do the track.  Hopefully the weather will cooperate. Study hard all week, because on Friday, you will have your test for the Spell-a-thon.  The winner in this class gets a medal and the top three get certificates.  Good luck class! Last but not least, I am asking that your mystery stories that we have been working on about the Titanic be completed this week.  We are almost finished our mystery unit, and do not want to have these loose strings.  I'm anxious to start our Humour unit, and I know you will love it too!  On Friday there are only 23 school days left...SCARY!!!!

Welcome to the first week of May!  Yeah!  I love the month of May and all the wonderful weather that accompanies it.  Let's hope for a great one! Another short week is in store for this week.  Only a three day week, but a very busy one at that.  We have Mr. Duplessie coming to help us with our Titanic Documentary on Monday.  Then Tuesday we are continuing with our new Social Studies unit, which I am very excited for!  We will be writing letters to our friends at Croft in hieroglyphics, and then they will write us back.  How much fun is that?  Don't forget the walk at French Fort Cove for Harkins has Healthy Hearts!  They will be meeting at 4pm Wednesday, and our final day, will be our test on the Titanic, so we can close up this unit!  I know everyone will do great on it! Here is to a great week.  Work hard, and have fun!
