Einstein Update 5-4-2017


Einstein News                                          May 4, 2017

Tomorrow is Spirit Day! Your Einstein may wear a Mayo spirit shirt with regular uniform bottoms.

Tomorrow is the last day for the BOGO (buy one get one free) book fair! You do not want to miss this opportunity to pick up some great books for a great price!

ALL Library Books are due back at Mayo tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the T-town Taco Truck breakfast from 7:30-8:30 a.m. Breakfast tacos and coffee can be purchased from the truck for $3/each! See attached flyer for more details!


Curriculum Update:  This week we have been talking about bees! Why are bees so important? What resources are available to help us learn about bees? (i.e. internet, books, videos, experts, etc.) We also had a visit from OSU’s Traveling Insect Adventure where we got to learn more about bugs and had the opportunity to pet hissing cockroaches, a giant African millipede, roly polies, walking sticks, possum beetles and a whip scorpion. We will end the year with some of our favorite worktime jobs and welcome in summer!

Summer Birthdays: If your Einstein has a birthday during the summer and they would like to celebrate with their homebase by bringing a treat, please contact your child’s homebase teacher so they can schedule a day to celebrate!
Einstein End of Year Bash will be Wednesday, May 17, 2017 at Whiteside Park. We will leave at 9:15 and return to Mayo at 1:45Whiteside Park is located on 41st St between S Harvard and S Yale (4013 S Pittsburg Ave, Tulsa, OK 74135). Einsteins will have a special lunch provided by the teachers (parents will need to bring their own) and we will be visited by a sno cone trolley! Parents are invited to attend any/all of this fun event. Parents will also be able to purchase a sno cone for themselves from the trolley for only $1! Einsteins may wear a Mayo spirit shirt and shorts for this day! As with any Mayo field study, this day is for Einsteins and their parents/grown ups only! If you wish to sign out your Einstein from the park, please do so with your child’s homebase teacher. Please make other arrangements for all siblings. 

Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) – Second year Einsteins are almost finished with the MAP test! This is the last time second year Einsteins will have to take this test this year. We will share these scores with you once they are made available. 

Volunteer Breakfast- Each year we like to honor those people who graciously give their time to volunteer at Mayo.  If you have volunteered in any way, shape, or form this year you are invited to our Volunteer Breakfast on May 12th at 7:15 A.M. in the Mayo Library. We appreciate all your hard work 

As always, if you have any questions, please email your child’s homebase teacher.
