Jan. 16-19

What's Coming Up Next Week? NO SCHOOL ON MONDAY the 15th
ü   After our half days being cancelled, if you feel the need for a parent/teacher conference please email me.
ü  Exhibition outlines will be beginning this week. Each child will be using their own google documents to share and edit their papers.
DANCE SHOW INFO:
ü  We are getting close to our 5th grade dance show, “Dancing through the Decades.” The show will take place on Thursday, February 15, 2018 at 6:30 p.m. It will feature music from the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s. We have been discussing costumes, and I have attached some ideas below. The attached link are just ideas to go off of. These are not a required costume to purchase. All students must wear pants that are comfortable to move in. They can be jeggings, jeans, jazz pants, black sweats, or athletic bottoms that go past the knee. Most pieces can be pulled from your child’s wardrobe they currently have.
ü  All footwear must also be comfortable to move in, nothing heavy or bulky. Students can wear tennis shoes. For students who are in dance outside of school, they can wear their jazz shoes.
ü  Berens (80’s):
Plaid shirt, black, or white shirt with jeans (can be distressed) or black pants.
Can have breathable faux leather items, studded items, fingerless gloves
