Thank you to all of our community service providers who greeted our students last week for Kindness month! Our students enjoyed seeing so many hardworking members of our community, and thanking them for their service! We’d also like to Mention… IN OTHER NEWS Mrs. Wade’s kindergarten students have been writing persuasive pieces on how to make the world a better place. They have written books, posters and letters and below can be seen having classmates sign their petitions.
Our school's spring book fair will be held from April 2-8 and will be a Buy One/Get One fair. Parents now have the option of using ewallet to give students a secure, cash-free way to shop the fair. Simply create an eWallet and authorize a spending limit on your credit card. Your card is not charged until your child buys a book and unused funds are never charged. Directions can be found by clicking the GET STARTED button on our book fair webpage. We will also be open during literacy night for parents who would like to visit the fair and before and after school each day. http://www.scholastic.com/bf/newp ortplymouthelemsch1
HORNETHerald IN OTHER BREAKING NEWS… The students featured below were recognized for being stand by’ers in the month of March!
Science Mr. Robinson’s 4th grade students created some amazing volcanoes to go along with the plate tectonics unit of study! Volcanoes and earthquakes both result from the movement of tectonic plates.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION NEWS… Students in grades prek-1 will be participating in a balancing unit over the next 3 weeks. The students will use the difference between static and dynamic balance and will learn how to perform examples of each. Copy Cat Balance, Balance Tag, Balancing Stations, and Broken Bridge are names of some of the activities that these students will participate in to help them learn. Students in grades 2-4 will be learning how to better communicate, problem solve, and work with others throughout a cooperative games unit. Learning activities such as Cross the River, Team Skiis, Scooter Bowling, Toxic Waste Transfer, and Ball Pass will be challenging and fun for all! Please help to remind your child to bring indoor footwear to school every day. Wearing boots in physical education creates a safety concern and slippery conditions.
At Newport/Plymouth Elementary School we are safe, responsible and respectful. If you see your child come home with a Hornet Hero sticker, please ask him/her how he/she earned it!
PBIS Update In the month of March students have been working on being a stand-by’er. A stand-by’er is someone who speaks up for others who may be hurt, sad or upset.
