A Whole Lot Happening in May and June!

May 2	Symphony Field Trip – We will once again be taking a field trip to the Symphony for the morning.  Best thing about this trip – It’s free!
May 16	Zoo Field Trip – All day trip to the Jacksonville Zoo!  Make sure to send a bagged/boxed lunch with your child.
May 17	5th Grade Dance – All fifth graders are invited to come let loose with all of their friends they’ve known for so long.  There will be music, snacks, games, and lots and lots of dancing!
May 20-May 24	7th Annual Knowledge-Bowl – This is an event unique to Mr. Sofferin’s class!  It’s a week-long competition to see who has accumulated the most knowledge over the course of the year.  Students will be facing off against each other to answer questions about science, social studies, math, books we’ve read, and even each other!  This year there will be some brand new twists and surprises to make it a little different from last year!
May 23	Chorus/ORFF Concert – The last concert presented by Mrs. Laymon and the Beauclerc Chorus and ORFF.
May 25	Class Lunch Out – We’ll get together on a Saturday before school gets out to have lunch.  This will not replace our class party, which will be during the last week of school.

June 4	End of the Year Party – I’ll hand out individual awards, specially made photo collages, DVD yearbooks, and some other special surprises, and then we’ll have pizza while we look back on some wonderful memories from the past three years.
June 5	Trip to Wild Adventures – The whole fifth grade hits the road and heads to Wild Adventures for the day!
June 6	Awards & End of the Year Picnic – Students will receive awards at the award ceremony.  Then the whole fifth grade will have a HUGE picnic/party on the third to last day of school!  Let me know if you’d like to help with serving food or anything else during this event!
June 7	Last Day of School – Students will receive their report cards, and we’ll share one final morning together.  Please try to make sure your child is present on this day, as it will be a very special day that they won’t want to miss.
