Important Information & Dates

As part of our Building unit in Science, we will be constructing robots out of recycled materials.  We will need items like cereal boxes, pasta boxes, clean yogurt containers, egg cartons, buttons, caps or lids, scraps of fabric, paper towel rolls, etc.  If you have any of these items, please send them with your child before Friday, June 17.  Thanks!

Volunteers wanted
If parents have a security clearance and would like to help students with their robots on Friday, June 17, please let us know.  We are looking for about 2 parents per class to help from 10-11:30 a.m.    

Please read the June newsletter and calendar, which can be found under “School Information” on the Panorama Hills School homepage.

Thursday, June 16- Healthy Hunger Lunch- Little Caesars
Thursday, June 23- Farewell Assembly at 9 am and Sports Day
Monday, June 27- Report cards and last day of school!

If your child will not be at school on Monday, June 27 to receive their final report card, please send a self addressed, stamped envelope and we will be happy to mail it to you.

Ask Me About
Good readers visualize when they read.  What does visualize mean?  (Make a picture or movie in your head while you are reading.)  This helps students gain a better understanding of what they read.
