Mr. Martens did a read aloud in Mrs. Brandt's second grade class last week. He read "Billy Bloo is Stuck in Goo". The students loved his read aloud and enjoyed his explanations! Especially, the one about the loo! The students hope he can come do a read aloud again soon!
The Alma Spikes Art Department and the students would like to thank the City of Pocahontas for the generous donation of paper. It will be put to good use.
Thanks to Julie Crane from the Springdale School District for sharing her experiences of working with English Language Learners with our K-6 grade staff.

Reminder that tomorrow (5/04) is the Alma Spikes Elementary Art Show!! The Exhibit will be on display from 8am to 2:30pm in the Alma Cafeteria. Everyone is invited to attend.
Due to the rain, we will be having the bouncy stations in the gym tomorrow. Normally, this would be the best time to attend and enjoy the fun with your kids. However, I want to make sure everyone knows that we will be in the gym and it will be hot, damp, and will have strong odors of bouncing and playing. If you would like to attend, the times are as follows:
Bouncy Station Assigned Times.
First Grade 9:15-10:45
Kindergarten 11:30-1:00
Second Grade 1:00-2:30
Mega Party Fun Day is HERE!!!!
Tomorrow is our bouncy day. Everyone is invited to come in and enjoy the day on campus. There is a schedule for each grade and when they will be assigned to the bouncy stations. MOST IMPORTANTLY: Only students with permission slips turned in by tomorrow morning will be allowed to use the bouncy stations. Remember to turn in those slips!!
