State Testing, State Fair, Broadway Spectacular,

 and the Stock Market 

The students will be starting the State Testing this week.  We will be testing Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and possibly Friday this week.  We will be testing a few days a week during the following couple of weeks too. 

 The students have started research for the State Fair. The students will have a lot of class time to do research on their chosen state which they will display on a Tri-fold. We are asking that the students get their own Tri-fold.  They will need to create some type of game that relates to their State and dress up related to their state. (Ex: NY – Statue of Liberty) State Fair is on Thursday,  May 23rd from 8:30 to 9:40 a.m. This is a fun culmination to see.

   We have started practicing and try-outs for our Broadway Spectacular which will be on June 12th. All of the students need a black plain shirt, a white plain shirt, a torn/dirty looking shirt, and jeans for the production. For those who get main parts, they may need to get another costume too.  Thank you for your help in getting these items for your child.  We are doing songs from Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables, Annie, Bye Bye Birdie, Wicked, Oliver, The Greatest Showman, Hamilton, High School Musical, and Grease.  This is another event that you do not want to miss. 
    The students are learning about the Stock Market.  They each have invested in 3 different companies via the Stock Market and will follow their progress over the next 6 weeks.  Ask your students which stocks they bought with their '$10,000' dollars.
