Book Fair Thanks!

The King School Scholastic & Used Book Fairs were a huge success! We raised over $2000 for the PTO! We would like to thank everyone who volunteered at the King School Book Fairs (before, during, & after)...and all the wonderful King School families who purchased both new & used books. Additionally, every classroom received a book for their classroom library as a thank you to the teachers & students for their support. We also purchased several books for the King School Library!

Thanks for all your support!

Student Council News: King Goes Green

Students and staff at King have been working very hard to complete all of the necessary points or jobs to become Green School certified by the State of Michigan. To become certified, the school must complete at least “ten points” from a given list of criteria for becoming “green.” We have completed the following points: recycling paper, cardboard, containers, batteries, & printer cartridges; implementing an energy savings program; reusing magazines and newspapers; the media center has a plan for updating and using ecological materials.

One point (that should count for five) is our new composting endeavor spearheaded by Ms. Shah. All students will be treated to a composting skit, performed by our 5th grade green composting team (Zoe C., Jessica H., Mabel R., Yasmeena N., Margo K., Laura H., Alice D., Melissa N., Danielle B., Savoy D., Olivia C., Evan W., Bethany G.) on March 30 in the afternoon.

Two points we need to complete are adopting an endangered species and organizing a corresponding presentation. Student council members will use Powerpoint presentations to show students our progress with the Green School initiative, including the raptors that live at the Leslie Science Center. Following this presentation, students will vote on which raptor they want to adopt as a student body. Leslie Science Center will then present “Hunters of the Sky” on April 20, bringing with them our adopted raptor!

Our last points will be completed as part of our Earth Week celebrations. This will include: 5th graders creating six activities for our first ever Earth Day festival on April 22; Ms. Wayne is helping students create & organize an Earth Week poster contest; and all students will be cleaning up our playground and surrounding areas during this week.

Parents are invited to help during the Earth Day festival on April 22. K-2 children will be participating between 12-1:30 p.m. ; 3rd & 4th graders between 2- 3:30 p.m. Please contact Dr. M. if you can help supervise an activity. mailto:michali1@aaps.k12.mi.us

World Languages At King For 2009-10

The Ann Arbor Public Schools, in partnership with the University of Michigan School of Education, will implement Elementary World Language next fall as a special class during the school day. The collaborative program will include third grade students in all AAPS schools, with planning underway to expand in the future. Students will be learning Spanish. New language learning emerged as a high priority for parents in a recent district survey as well as the district's strategic plan. You can find additional details about the world language program here.

Academic Games Update: Another GREAT Year

Hello King School Parents,

As our Academic Games season comes to a close, we want to take the opportunity to thank our King PTO for all of their support. We really appreciate all that you do for us.

This year, Christy, Mrs. Vanek, and I coached 26 students on Tuesday evenings and Fridays after school. They learned to play Equations, On-Sets, On-Words, and Presidents. Several of our students attended Saturday tournaments in Ann Arbor, Detroit, and Ypsilanti.

Overall, the students really seemed to enjoy the games, learning, practicing, and competing. Some students even attended the 2-1/2 day State Super Tournament in Grand Rapids, hosted by the Michigan League of Academic Games.

We plan to start King Academic Games again in the fall, and if anyone is interested in more information about AG Summer Camps in Ann Arbor, please give us a call.

Sincerely,

Mike Vanek

Week 2: March is Reading Month!

Info every parent should know: King's Media Center in the 21st Century.

While our library might look a lot like the school libraries we all grew up with, times have changed as schools work to prepare our students for the technology-rich, information-laden world they live in. Yes, we still read stories and check out books, two things of great value of fun. But read on to see samples of what our kids are doing during their library and/or lab time (together called ILT: Information Literacy and Technology).

Kindergartners are practicing alphabetical ordering skills--the necessary foundation for accessing library books, using indexes, etc.

1st graders are making classroom nonfiction animal books using facts gathered from books, the internet, and magazines. They'll learn how to use their own words when taking notes and to give citation credit.

2nd graders are studying biographies, both in the classroom and during Media Center time.

3rd graders have spent time working with the Dewey decimal system as they practice effective access skills on our online library catalog.

4th graders used a variety of resources, including our Grolier database and Kids InfoBits from the Michigan Electronic Library (MEL), to collect info about famous African Americans.

And 5th graders discussed internet safety with me using an FBI website.

Sprinkle in a dragon story, some booktalks, and perhaps a tent and some flashlights, and THAT'S the library of today!

Happy Reading Month! Mrs. Ann O'Keefe okeefea@aaps.k12.mi.us

Week 2 WILD Challenge: Return to "old-fashioned" fun: see if someone--or everyone--in your family can tell a story orally--no reading allowed! How's your imagination? Can you make a beginning, introduce a problem, and then end it with a solution? Got good names for your characters? A setting? Remind your kids that this is how stories were told around campfires, in the WILD, for all time.

AAPS budget forum: join A2 Parents for Schools on Thursday!

Help us put the "public" back in our public schools!

Join us at the second and last AAPS budget forum -
this Thursday, March 5, 7-9pm at Forsythe Middle School

These budget meetings are among the few opportunities for parents and the public in general to learn about and have a voice in shaping next year's AAPS school budget before the final vote is taken. Hosted by AAPS Superintendent Todd Roberts and Deputy Superintendent Robert Allen (basically, the CEO and CFO of our public schools), these meetings help spell out what has been happening with our schools' funding and offer the chance to talk about where we go from here.

The Federal stimulus won't work miracles; there are still hard choices to be made. Be a part of the solution!

Math Olympiad Is Coming To King School

Dear parents,

I am happy to announce that, with the support of PTO and Mr. Karr, King school will add another exciting academic enrichment program to benefit our students—the Math Olympiad for Elementary and Middle Schools (MOEMS). The MOEMS has been a major math contest for school children for 30 years. In the 2007-2008 year, 150,000 students participated in the program, representing all 50 US states and 25 countries. Its stated goals are:
• To stimulate enthusiasm and a love for Mathematics
• To introduce important Mathematical concepts
• To teach major strategies for problem solving
• To develop Mathematical flexibility in solving problems
• To strengthen Mathematical intuition
• To foster Mathematical creativity and ingenuity
• To provide for the satisfaction, joy, and thrill of meeting challenges
Starting from the fall of 2009, King school will have a Math Olympiad Team for 4th and 5th graders. Everyone who wants the challenge is welcome, regardless of the level of math proficiency. We will hold after-school training sessions, where we will introduce problem-solving strategies, and work in small groups on word problems. All students on the team are strongly encouraged to participate in the contests, but they have the option to participate in the training only.

The contests will be held at King school once every month from November to March. In each contest, students will have 30 minutes to solve 5 word problems. All participants will receive Participation Certificates, high scorers will also receive gold, silver or bronze plaques and trophies. Nationwide, about half of the participants receive plaques or trophies.

Student sign-up and parent volunteer recruitment for the 2009-2010 year will begin in the fall. At that time, we will also hold an informational meeting for all interested parents.

The training and contests will run from October to March, roughly 3 times a month. The long time-span helps make math enrichment a continuous process. But it also requires commitment from students and parents. To give students a chance to try out the activity, we will run a math club in May and June, 2009. The club is open to all 3rd and 4th graders (who will be eligible for MOEMS in the fall). We will meet one hour a week after school for four weeks. This will be a good math enrichment opportunity; however, anyone who does not sign up for the club can still sign up for the Math Team in the fall.

The sign-up form for the math club in May and June will be available in April, as well as parent volunteer sign-up. We welcome all kinds of help from parents. Meanwhile, if you have questions, please email jingliu01@gmail.com or ljing@umich.edu .

Sincerely,
Jing Liu, PICO (Person In Charge of the Olympiad)

Raising a Son? Need Help? - Come To King 3/4 @! 7

Raising Strong and Gentle Sons Workshop
Wednesday, March 4, 7:00-9:00 PM
King School Multi-Purpose Room
Speaker: Carole Lapidos, M.S.W.

Boys are growing up in a very confusing world. There are so many conflicting messages about what it means to be a boy and a man. If boys are taking their cues from the culture, then they are losing access to a very important part of themselves. Parents raising sons today face many challenges. This workshop will explore the topics that impact how boys see themselves and provide strategies for parents to stay connected to their sons.

Carole Lapidos is the co-founder and director of Raising Strong & Confident Daughters, a local organization dedicated to helping young children develop a strong sense of self-esteem. Registration is required. Please contact Laurie Galia by phone, 734-996-9946 or by email at lquain@umich.edu to register for this workshop by February 27. This workshop is being sponsored by the King School PTO.

Silent Auction - Our PTO's Biggest Fundraiser

The 2008 Silent Auction raised over $20,000 for field trips, WESO materials, teacher mini-grants, writing workshops with EMU, Leslie Science Center programming and much, much more.

With one month to go, we are not anywhere near that mark. And while we budgeted for a smaller auction this year, we need a concerted effort from everyone to make this event even half as successful as last year.

How Can You Help?

Offer to call 5 businesses who have supported us in the past and likely will donate something this year.

Offer to take on a leadership position--Needed positions are:

Volunteer coordinator--this person helps find/schedule volunteers for table set up Thurs night, display set up Friday, registration, check-out and clean up duties.

Food coordinator--this person plans and orders a menu, purchases plates/serving ware, and ensures vendors are paid.

Filing coordinator--on auction day this person leads a team to handle registrations, makes files for each registrant and sorts winning bid sheets. Terri Brodkey (previous chair) has perfected this and unfortunately will be out of town April 3rd.

Donation, Donations, Donations

Half of our monies raised were from internal donations. Some suggestions:

Offer a home cooked meal for delivery; Lessons?--music, skating, chess, language, painting; host a party--it's 80's night with big hair, Madonna, and shoulder pads; donate travel award miles or hotel reward points; offer your time share; gardeners can share perrenials; bakers share favorite desserts; host a children's party or event such as "learning magic" or "fun with math"; create a collection of your favorite wines; donate a themed basket such as Poke'mon or consider hosting a tailgate party some Saturday in Sept, Oct or Nov.

Unable to Volunteer or Donate?

Please send a check to King PTO with Silent Auction in the memo line. This fundraiser requires the support of every King family.

For information on how to help or to offer a donation, contact Lisa Kohn, Auction Chair.

lkohn@umich.edu or 734-417-7129.

Reading Month: Week 1 Challenge

Week 1 WILD Reading Challenge: (“Bear” with us, we’ve got a wild animal theme!) Pick one evening or weekend day and have the whole family stop everything (kind of like hibernation) and read: it can be one book read aloud for all of you, or everyone can curl up like bear cubs with their chosen favorites (magazines and newspapers ALWAYS count, but let’s not choose something on a screen for this challenge). Turn off all jungle noise, tv’s and phones, and see what 15 minutes of JUST BOOKS AND PEACE feels like. No monkeying around! Ask your child to tell me about it!

March is Reading Month!

While King students love to read all year long, March is the month when we traditionally celebrate READING in a big way. What’s going on?
*Check out the family letter that came home with an optional activity sheet.
*Ask your kids what’s happening at school (something about a lion?)
*Watch these eNotes each week!

Week 1 Notes: Check it out! Kids and books at King

All King kids get to check out two books at a time (plus extras as assignments require)--and this month they get to have four! We don’t charge fines for late books, we just like to get them back when you are done with them. Sometimes a long book needs to be kept for 3 or 4 weeks, while in other cases kids get new books every few days.

Every few days? Yes, there are brief times each day when the library is open (like every day from starting bell till 9am) even if it isn’t your child’s weekly scheduled day. It has to be a good time for the teacher too, but oftentimes kids can scoot in to exchange books quite frequently.

Do you often forget to return books on “library day”? Kids can return their books ANY day, just slide them into the backpacks when you think of it. That way they’ll be all set to find and take out great new stuff when they visit the Media Center.

I welcome questions and comments anytime; email is best since I teach most of the day. Thanks for helping King grow happy readers!
