GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS!

GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS:
Good morning, Clark Elementary! Today is Friday, May 1st. It is the 153rd day of school. And today is May Day!
THIS DAY IN HISTORY! May Day is a special day celebrated on May 1st each year. It has a few fun meanings: It is a spring celebration where people celebrate warmer weather, blooming flowers, and new plants growing. Long ago, communities danced around a maypole with colorful ribbons. In some places, people make small baskets filled with flowers or treats and secretly leave them on a neighbor's doorstep. Then they ring the doorbell and run away! It's a fun way to spread kindness and celebrate spring.
WHAT'S COOKING? For lunch today, our choices are deep-dish cheese pizza or pepperoni pizza. All of this will be served with corn, yogurt, and delicious choices off the salad bar. You can wash this all down with a carton of milk.
WEATHER The weather today is going to be very springlike. The temperature is expected to reach 59 degrees with a mix of sun and clouds.
VOCABULARY BUILDER-UPPER/WORD OF THE DAY Today's vocabulary word is hyperbole (Hi-per-ba-lee). A Hyperbole is a figure of speech that is an extreme exaggeration. We hear examples of hyperboles all day long; they are things like "I've told you a million times!" You may not have been told a million times, but you've been told a lot. Or "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse," you probably couldn't eat an actual horse; it just means you're really hungry.
QUOTE OF THE DAY
THE QUOTE OF THE DAY:
Today's quote comes from The Mostly True Adventures of Homer P. Figg by Rodman Philbrick. "Sometimes you got to be brave, even if you're scared. "Being brave doesn't mean you're never afraid—it means you do the right thing even when you are scared. THE JOKE OF THE DAY: What do you call a rabbit with fleas?
Bugs Bunny BIRTHDAYS and PLEDGE: Leland Kepple-Chase and Charlotte Whatley in preschool have birthdays today. Colby Engle in Mrs. Stromquist's room has a birthday tomorrow. If you see them, please be sure to wish them a happy birthday.
If you haven't heard it from anyone today, we are so happy that you are here. Have a wonderful weekend! We will see you soon at the gym for the Assembly! Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.
