Kindergarten Registration

Perry Hall Elementary will hold Kindergarten Registration for the 2018-2019 school year on Thursday, April 12, 2018. Pre-K registration will be on Thursday, April 26, 2018. Contact Mrs. Bragg at 410-887-5105 for more information. We will send out registration materials later this month. Please pass this information on to any neighbors or friends who may be attending Pre-K or K next school year.  It is important to have as many of our new Kindergarten students register as early as possible. This allows our school to plan and prepare for the next school year in a more efficient manner. It also provides families with the assurance that their students are registered to begin school on time.

Spanish Notes

¡Hola! ¡Saludos de la clase de español! It’s hard to believe we’re already more than halfway through the school year! Students have learned so much in Spanish and continue to make such great progress. In fourth grade, students are learning different locations to do activities and different professions. They will learn to describe what they want to be when they grow up and why.

In fifth grade, students are learning all about school. They know how to describe what school supplies you need for class, what you do in each class, and which class is their favorite. They will learn about the different people working in a school and how to describe their school schedule. They also did a fun escape room activity; if you have a fifth grader, ask them about it!

Are you looking to practice some Spanish at home? Ask your child to teach you what they learned in Spanish class each week! Also, here are some Spanish phrases you can practice at home during March.

|La frase en español |English sentence |

|¿Cuántos años tienes? |How old are you? |

|Yo tengo ___ años. |I’m __ years old. |

|¡Feliz día de San Patricio! |Happy St. Patrick’s Day! |

|¡El día de Maryland es el 25 de marzo! |Maryland Day is March 25! |

|¡Feliz primavera! |Happy spring! |

¡Hasta luego!

News from Mrs. Battista, our Art Teacher

Two of our Perry Hall Gators have their works of art in a special Youth Art Month Exhibit at the Walters Art Museum!  Congratulations to Mya Abt and Krista McCarthy!  Their artwork is impressive, and they have done a wonderful job representing Perry Hall Elementary.  If any students and parents are able to get to the museum to see this exhibit, it will be on display from February 28th to March 11th.  Remember, admission to the Walters is always free and always an awesome experience.  Be prepared to be amazed!

Pennies for Patients

What is this?

In collaboration with the American Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, we are going to be having a “Penny Drive” in which students collect pennies at home and bring them to school to raise money for this society.

When is this?

March 5-23

How do I show support?

Each child will bring home a collection box that they can use to collect spare change at home. They can bring this box in when it gets full and empty it into the teacher’s class collection box.

What is our goal?

We are trying to have each student raise at least $5.00 in change.

Information is coming home in Thursday folders!
