Field Trip - Kalamazoo Valley Museum

 

On Tuesday June 7, we will travel to the Kalamazoo Valley Museum to visit the Rube Goldberg exhibit and planetarium. Students will need to bring a mask (the KVM is requiring all visitors to wear a mask while in the museum) and a sack lunch to school.

 


 

*If your child is planning to receive a sack lunch from the school instead of bringing his/her own from home, please fill out the form located here no later than Monday 6/6 at 4pm.

 

Field Trip - Sarett Dune Study

 

On Wednesday June 8, we will travel to Grand Mere State Park for a dune study field trip. Students will need to dress appropriately for the weather and must wear shoes that will not come off easily. They may wear tennis shoes or sandals with straps - no slip on sandals or flip flops may be worn). Students also need to make sure they bring a water bottle!

 

Summer Activities

If you requested a packet to prevent summer slide for 4th grade, that will be going home this week.

 

Summer Learning Challenge 2022

We are challenging all of our current Y5 - 4th grade students to "go for gold" this summer! By dedicating a small portion of their free time to fun learning activities, students will work to overcome the effects of "summer slide". 

Here's how it will work: students will track their progress all summer long on this sheet (a hard copy will be sent home with summer book packs on Wednesday as well). They will turn it in once we return to school in the fall. Based on the number of activities completed throughout the summer, students will earn a gold, silver, or bronze medal. Let's inspire all of our Brown School students to "go for the gold"!

 

 

 

Water Bottles and Snacks

This is a friendly reminder that students should come to school with a full water bottle each day; while students can fill their water bottles at the bottle fillers, the water fountain remains off.

Students are also encouraged to bring 2 healthy snacks each day, one for morning recess and one for afternoon recess.

 

Library Books

If your child received a yellow slip indicating a missing library book, please work on locating and returning it.  Mrs. Berry, our media specialist, is busy working to inventory all books.
