Dear Parents,
Reading Restaurant: as most of you know, we will host our annual Reading
Restaurant on Thursday, April 5th
. It is an evening event. You and family
members come to Horizon, and we treat you to a tasty viewing of your child’s writing from across this year.
Children work together to serve you their writing, and you leave a “tip” or a
comment for every piece you read.
Our Reading
Restaurant title this year, chosen by the students, is
“The Black
Hole Diner.”
We’ll also
have the room decorated with a space theme, and the kids should look for casual
black clothing (at home or at a second-hand store?) to dress up in.
We will have
two seatings, and your child will be either in the first one (6:15-7:00
p.m.), or the second one (7:15-8:00 p.m.)
We will be assigning roles and shifts for the kids tomorrow (Monday),
and then I will send out a form in the next couple of days for you to make
your reservation. By the way, there is no charge for this event.
Parent-Teacher Conferences: I have emailed
you a sign-up sheet for the second and third weeks of April (April 9th - April 19th).
Please let me know if none of these times work for you.
Space Research Papers: we are hard at work on our Space Research papers. Students
are studying everything from Venus to galaxies to black holes. We’re excited
that you’ll get to see them at the Reading Restaurant.
Building our Space Ship: Eric Van
Buren, Anna’s dad, was able to get the wood 1x3s for us to make the skeleton of
our space ship--starting tomorrow. Thank you, Eric. Jessica Lamorey is going to help us with the
construction project. At this point, the
only other thing we need is the cardboard. So, send it in!
That’s it
for now. Have a great week, everyone.
Mr. Bolger
