Be on the Look Out!

These are the books we are looking for.

Thanks for all your help.

May 26 - 29

We are nearing the end of the school year! We have worked hard this year. I am so proud of my class. We have a few tests this week and lots of fun things scheduled.  It should be a awesome week. 

Tuesday - Carson Talent Show

Wednesday - Carson Field Day

(parents don't forget the sunblock)

Friday - Battle of the Books

Mrs. Smyers class is missing a number of guided reading books, library books, and classroom books. Last Friday I sent home a note with the pictures of the guided reading books. Parents please look around for these books. When you find them please return them. This will help Carson Elementary preserve guided reading libraries for future students.  

Thank you
