We had a great time last weekend in the UP.  Seeing the kids drive their own dog sled teams is always a dream come true! Some of us also visited Tahquamenon Falls to see the winter version on Sunday.  If you couldn’t make it this year you are always welcome to come up to the Thrilla in the future!  Just check the website.  It’s always around the same weekend.   We love to see Mr. Braymer’s Class Alumni!

Have a fantastic Spring Break!  I hope it’s restful for everyone whether you go somewhere or stay home.  Enjoy your time!

I’ll be sending home camp balance notes once we return from spring break.  Make sure to rescue them from backpacks if you don’t see it come home. 

We will be taking the MSTEP standardized test the week we come back.  We know it’s a challenge, but they will do great! Keeping a positive attitude will help!  If they finish our MSTEP packet over break ( great for long road trips ) I will give them a special treat when they get back! ;-)

MIRM/Spring Break/MSTEP

The Thrilla in McMilla race is this weekend!  I can’t wait see some students experience the dogsledding.  Next week will be a short one and lots of kids are excited about Spring Break. 

Thank you to everyone who helped with Spring Fling last week, I heard it was a great turnout and lots of fun!

March Is Reading Month continues next week.   Let’s finish strong.  One lucky kid will have a coconut drawn to pie a teacher in the face.   See the video  MIRM 2019

Spirit Day next Thursday is Hawaiian Theme Day.  Plus, the infamous Quincy 5th graders vs. Teachers basketball game!  Whether you stay home or travel, stay safe and enjoy Spring Break!

We will be taking the MSTEP standardized test the week we come back.  We know it’s a challenge, but they will do great! Keeping a positive attitude will help!  If they finish our MSTEP packet over break ( great for long road trips ) I will give them a special treat when they get back! ;-)

Iditarod/MIRM/MSTEP

We have enjoyed the Iditarod this week.  The kids moved their mushers to Nome along our race board.  Over the weekend the race will conclude for all but a few.  It’s been a fun season once again with Ikidarod and Iditarod. 

The Thrilla in McMilla race will be next weekend and I look forward to seeing some students standing on the back of a real dogsled and racing a team!  Thrilla in McMilla dogsled adventure! Nature’s Kennel’s website.

We have been enjoying following the Iditarod this week.  The kids are moving their mushers along the race board in the hallway and reading, learning about the race!  The first teams usually come into Nome around 9 days from the start.  That should be next week sometime!
