March 4th at the Connecticut Association of Schools
Volunteer Recognition Banquet, Sue Antoniou, Kelli
Giammarco and Karen Soucy were honored as this
year’s Frenchtown volunteer honorees.
Our monthly theme at Frenchtown will be
“Spring Into Confidence.” Our Character Counts
pillar of study is “Friendship.” We will also review
our T.R.A.C.K.S attributes for all the areas of our
building and at recess and on the bus. We will send
you new information to use at home.
April is School Library Media Month. Our
school library is a very special place where we can
really read, think and learn. Mrs. Bilangi, our
Library Media Specialist, has organized many
special activities for the month such as looking up
and having a joke or riddle to share with staff
members throughout the day; hosting authors in the
Media Center throughout the month; and having
“lunchtime literacy” opportunities for students.
Grade 5 Invention Convention will be held
on Tuesday, April 7th. The judging will be held in
the morning. The public can visit the Invention
Convention from 1:30 to 2:45 along with grade 3
and 4 students.
Our Read Aloud day will be Thursday, April
9 . This year our theme is From Farm to Table.
th
The 41st annual observance of National
Volunteer Week will be held the week of April
13th. This is an opportune time for us to show our
generous and caring volunteers our sincere
appreciation for their invaluable contributions. In
expressing our gratitude, I’d like to quote Mother
Teresa, “It’s not how much we give, but how much
love we put into giving,” and Lao-Tzu, “He who
obtains has little. He who scatters has much.” On
The 43rd Anniversary of Earth Day will be
observed on April 22, 2015. Earth Day helps us to
explore science and social studies concepts. Children
are involved in science activities as they discover the
importance of trees, air and water. Exploring the
relationships between people and the environment, and
beginning to understand the interdependence of all
people, emphasizes important social studies principles.
The idea of having a national “Earth Day” to
voice concerns about environmental problems came 42
years ago from Senator Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin.
He initiated the event, but it truly was a grassroots
effort. He later wrote, “It organized itself.” More than
20 million Americans gathered across the United States
on April 22, 1970 to demonstrate on behalf of the
environment.
Due to SBAC testing, Family week had to be
spread out over the month of May with our special
activities set for May 11 to May 29. Our K-4 science
fair will be on display in the lobby Tuesday, May 18 to
Friday, May 29. Our theme is “Celebrate Our
Accomplishments.” The children will enjoy a show
entitled Bullyproof Your School on May 21.
Our grade 2 and 5 concert was moved to June
2nd and the Band and Strings concert will be held on
June 3rd.
Our classroom teachers along with our Art,
Music and Physical Education specialists are preparing
and presenting a month of events that will be your
children’s gift to you. Highlights of the month include
a student only “bag” picnic lunch, Grade 2 Career Day
and grade 1 author teas.
Please extend a “Family Week 2015” invitation
to all family members, grandparents, neighbors, friends,
and senior citizens to join us and become part of our
12th anniversary celebration as the culmination of our
eleventh year at Frenchtown. We hope you will be able
to join us at some, if not all, of our special activities.
Additional information and invitations will be sent
home in early May. Remember to check Channel
17, Wolf Mail, and our Web site
(www.frenchtownelementary.com.) for more
specifics.
I also encourage you to consider enrolling
your child in the Summer Explorations 2015, the
district’s summer school program. This year there
are many one week programs. Registration has
begun and ends June 15th. Some courses are limited
in enrollment so sign up now. Summer
Explorations begins June 29 and runs through July
24 for elementary students throughout Trumbull.

Friendship
What is friendship?
Spending time together.
Sharing ideas and treats.
Having fun.
Respecting each other's
differences.
Loyalty, sticking up for each other.
Caring for each other's safety and wellbeing.
Both of you working on the skills to keep your
friendship going.
Thank you to all Frenchtown families that
registered their Stop and Shop cards. We earned
$4012.90 . This year we will buy more technology
for all our students. Chromebooks, laptops or
document cameras.
In order to highlight the growing need for
concern and awareness about autism, the
Autism Society has been celebrating National
Autism Awareness Month since the 1970s.
The United States recognizes the month of
April as a special opportunity for everyone to
educate the public about autism and issues
within the autism community.
Kindergarten News…
Mrs. Bershefsky, Mrs. Buswell,
Mrs. Capone, Mrs. Crawford
March certainly came in like a
lion this year! We are all ready
for spring and are looking
forward to March going out like a
lamb! We look forward to
becoming detectives and
searching for signs of spring such as, buds on trees,
robins, warmer weather and daffodils. Have your
little one be on the lookout for spring!
This month was a favorite for holiday
celebrations with that silly Cat in the Hat for Dr.
Seuss Day and that tricky leprechaun sneaking in
here for St. Patrick’s Day. The kindergartners
LOVED reading their Dr. Seuss books on their
blankets and towels. We made a Cat in the Hat out
of paper plates and our own hat to wear as well.
We enjoyed reading some silly Dr. Seuss books and
did our own writing. Did you hear about what
happened on St. Patrick’s Day? We are sure you
heard about the treats the leprechaun left for the
kindergartners and the big mess he left behind! The
children had a lot of fun learning all about the
holiday and making St. Patrick’s Day crafts to
decorate the classroom.
We have spent time differentiating between short and
long vowel sounds and are noticing that most words
with long vowels contain a specific rule (i.e. silent e at
the end, a vowel team . . . ). Understanding this process
is another means to helping the children write well
phonetically. Finally, we have begun focusing on
digraphs. A digraph is when two letters together make
one sound. The five digraphs we will focus upon are:
th, sh, ch, wh, ck. The children LOVE to find digraphs
everywhere!
In math, we finished up our geometry unit. The
children had a lot of fun learning about 2-D and 3-D
shapes. There are a lot of fun, hands-on
games/activities in the geometry unit. It is great to be
able to learn while playing! If your child is not yet able
to identify all of the following, please keep on
practicing at home: circle, square, rectangle, triangle,
hexagon, sphere, cube, cylinder, and cone. We have
now moved onto Unit 6 and will be focusing on
numeracy again, with a specific focus on teen numbers.
We will also work on adding and subtracting within 5.
The goal is for the children to be able to automatically
know the answer to a simple equation such as 2+3= or
4-1=. A letter should have already come home from
the district asking for you to practice with your child at
home.
In science we finished up our units on magnets and sink
and float. The children really enjoyed the various
experiments we got to conduct. We then moved onto
learning about animal coverings: fur, feathers, skin, and
scales. Learning about animals is always a motivation!
We hope your little one shared some interesting
scientific facts with you. We are always learning
something new in kindergarten!
We are moving right along in reading and
working hard on teaching the children to
independently use multiple strategies to read
unfamiliar text. Please use the “Reading Strategies”
bookmarks to help you guide your children at home.
The more independent your child becomes, the
easier reading becomes. Reading and writing go
hand in hand. Our focus for the remainder of the
year is for the children to write independently and
write more than one sentence. When your child is
writing his/her writing response for his/her bag of
books, encourage independence. Many adults often
have a hard time seeing their children spell words
incorrectly and have the need to correct their child’s
work. Independence and confidence work together,
so the more your child is willing to attempt to write
on his/her own, the more confident your child will
become and the more your child will be willing to
write.
Mrs. Gambardella, Mrs. Mordecai,
Mrs. Rodrigues, Mrs. Shinnick,
Mrs. Tuohy
During our Fundations lessons, we have
been focusing on tapping to spell. We are spending
time to tap and really hear each individual sound
which results in better phonetic skills when writing.
St. Patrick’s Day was also another fun
celebration. Children were engaged in activities such
Grade One News…
March has been a busy month for
the first graders at Frenchtown
School! The students began the
month celebrating the birthday of
Dr. Seuss! We read many of his
stories. The children were also
encouraged to bring in their favorite stories by Dr.
Seuss. It was a fun time in first grade!
as hat making and writing about catching
leprechauns! A few classes even had a visit from a
leprechaun! We are told the leprechaun escaped and
so we will be on the look out for him next year!
Reading strategies this month focused on
making connections and reading nonfiction. The
students also continued to focus on important
reading skills such as the silent e and vowel teams.
These skills have come in very handy as the
children continue to become proficient readers!
During math, the first graders became
familiar with measurement. The children learned
about what length is and how it can be measured.
Students worked on identifying the longest
dimension of an object and describing
measurements that are in between whole numbers
of units. This month in math the students began to
work on combinations of ten.
We have been very excited to get outside
after such a long winter and we look forward to a
beautiful spring!
Grade Two News …
Mrs. Angon, Mrs. Boyle,
Mrs. Pereira, Ms. Sansone
Wow! March was a busy month for our
second graders! In reading, the students have been
focusing on the wondering strategy. They learned
that good readers wonder before they read a text,
during their reading, as well as after they complete a
text. Students are also exploring many nonfiction
texts and learning about a variety of text features
that are commonly found in nonfiction books. Each
night, as you read with your child, remember to talk
to him/her about the book. Ask questions about the
author’s main idea, character traits, and vocabulary
used in the story. Also when reading nonfiction
books, encourage your child to notice nonfiction
text features such as the table of contents, glossary,
index, bold words, diagrams, and captions. This will
help improve your child’s reading comprehension.
In math, the students have been
working very hard on their
problem solving skills. They
have been developing multiple
strategies for solving problems
with totals up to 100! When working with your
child, it is important to encourage your child to not
only write an equation that represents a problem but
to also show their work. This is an important skill they
need to develop before third grade. There is a big focus
on adding tens and ones to combine 2-digit numbers
and noticing what happens to the tens place when a
multiple of ten is added or subtracted. It is essential
that your child continues to practice his or her addition
and subtraction facts on a nightly basis. The end of the
year is approaching quickly and they need to know their
facts for third grade!
In science, the students have been
introduced to a new unit on Matter.
Through hands-on experiments, they have
been able to discover the different
properties that solids and liquids possess.
We are seeing a lot of growth in second grade
and we thank all of the parents for their continued
support and devotion to their children’s education.
Let’s hope for much sunshine in the month of April!
Grade Three News…
Mrs. Atwood, Mrs. Carley,
Mrs. Cretella, Mrs. Makoski,
Mrs. Martins
April is a month full of exciting events for our
third graders! Our third grade Math Night Café is
occurring on the Wednesday, April 8th in the evening. It
promises to be a lot of fun for both our students and
their parents. We have a Read Aloud Day on April 9th!
The Read Aloud theme for this year is “Animal,
Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life,” and third
grade will be listening to In the Garden with Dr.
Carver. Of course, we are all looking forward to the
Spring Break during the week of April 13th. What a
fantastic month April is for our students!
In math classes, we have been studying
fractions. Students are working hard to understand the
relationship between the numerator and the
denominator in fractions. Perhaps students can
participate in measuring ingredients at home, or a
similar activity, to help reinforce fraction concepts.
Don’t forget to continue to practice your multiplication
and division facts at home. In reading, students have
been focusing on comparing and contrasting stories. We
have been looking for similarities and differences
between companion texts. At the beginning of the
month, we will be assigning biography book report
projects. We are not assigning reading logs during the
month of April, however, the students should be
reading their biography books throughout the month.
The students are continuing to
study the Native Americans of the
Northwest Coast in social studies
and will be moving towards their
study of Native Americans of the
Plains. They are very excited to
begin this unit and learn about the
tribes from this area. In science,
the students are finishing their unit of study for the
human body with their study of the nervous system.
Soon, the students will be completing a Connecticut
Embedded Task called “Soggy Paper” when the
students will be conducting fair tests with various
types of paper. All third grade students throughout
the state of CT will be completing this task!
We will be beginning our SBAC testing
sessions during in April. Please ensure that your
child gets plenty of sleep and eats a healthy
breakfast each day. We are asking families to pack
two snacks daily – one that they can eat prior to the
test, and one that they can enjoy after. There will
be no nightly homework nor assessments during the
SBAC window, which continues into the middle of
May.
We are finally enjoying some nicer weather.
Please make sure that your child is dressed
appropriately for outdoor recess. As always, if you
are able, the third grade teachers would like to ask
for any donations of tissues, paper towels, and
wipes. Our supplies are running low, and we can
always use reinforcements! Thanks so much!
Grade Four News…
Mr. Fiore, Ms. St. John
Mrs. Weinstein, Mrs. Wolfe
March comes in like a lion and out like a
lamb. This month has certainly been a testament to
that. Between all of the delayed openings, early
dismissals and school cancellations I think it is safe
to say that we are all relieved that spring is finally
here. Along with spring time, March brings the
Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium or
SBAC testing. The assessments are well underway
and our fourth grade students have been working
very hard. We are very proud of their perseverance
and positive attitude.
Our fourth graders continue to engage in a
rigorous curriculum that challenges them to delve
below the surface and use critical thinking skills.
All classes use close reads to analyze the purpose of the
text, its structure, the author’s choice of words, and key
story elements. In Making Meaning, our unit of study
has focused on special people and memories in our
lives. Children are recognizing the key elements of a
story - the characters, setting, and plot. In addition,
they are learning to recognize the theme and analyze
the author’s message to the reader. Being able to
describe a character’s thoughts, words or actions also
helps the reader gain a deeper understanding of a story.
Please continue to have your child read nightly.
In math, a big focus this month has been
working with fractions. The students have extended
their understanding of fraction equivalence by ordering
and building fractions. This enables them to apply and
extend their previous understanding of operations of
whole numbers. The students have also been learning
about decimal notation for fractions and comparing
decimal fractions. As always, please continue to
encourage your child to practice their math facts. As
we always say, “Fluency is
fabulous in fourth grade!”
In social studies the students
continue to learn about the regions
of the United States. The classes
are currently studying the
southeast.
This month the
students also shared their state projects with third grade
students. They were all well versed on their states, and
everyone was very impressed with how the students
connected their research to the five themes of
geography. Mrs. Wolfe developed this project and
received an award from the Weller Foundation. This
project is expected to be adopted as a district wide
shared experience next year. The science classes
finished their electricity unit and are learning about
magnetism and conducting exciting experiments.
Grade Five News…
Mrs. Alfano, Mrs. Demshak,
Mrs. Ferraro, Mrs. Gaspar,
Mrs. Grunow
Everyone is excited that we will have a four day
weekend on Friday, April 3rd-Monday, April 6th and our
April vacation from Saturday, April 11th – Sunday,
April 19th. But there is so much more happening in
April that you need to know.
Your child will also have a math articulation test
for middle school placement on April 8th. On April
9th, Frenchtown will be having Read Aloud Day.
Author Jacqueline Davies will come to our school
and share some of the inspirations for her stories.
You could visit her website at
http://www.jacquelinedavies.net for more details
about this fascinating children’s author. Hopefully,
your child has already started raising money for
Jump Rope for Heart on April 10th. When we
return from vacation we will be taking the spring
DRP test on April 21st.
Invention Convention is upon us! Remember
inventions, inventor’s log, and display boards are
due on Wednesday, April 1st! Judging will take
place on Tuesday, April 7th and parent viewing time
is 1:30-2:45pm. Each student chose an invention
that solves a real problem and serves a purpose. It
was hard for many to find something that no one
has ever thought of before or improve on an object
that was already invented. However, once your
child did, the designing and building was underway.
The test trials and improvement phase definitely
showed your child that it is not easy creating
something and a great deal of perseverance is
needed. Your child documented what was done and
how it was done in an inventor’s log. Most
enjoyed creating a display board demonstrating the
invention process and the invention complete with
drawings and photographs. Some are a little
nervous about the interview process by the judges.
Judges may ask questions like: What problem does
your invention solve? Why did you decide on this
invention?, or What was the biggest problem that
you faced while working on your invention? Check
out the site www.ctinventionconvention.org for
more information.
From the Library…
Mrs. Bilangi
Students in all grades have
completed Trumbull’s
Internet Safety curriculum.
Please be sure to ask your
students for tips on how to
keep safe on the Internet.
April is Library
Media Center month so we will have many
activities to celebrate. Fifth grade students will read
a poem during morning announcements each day
and authors will visit every grade: David Adler
(author of the Cam Jansen series) for first and second
grade on March 26;
Alyssa Capucilla (the author of the Biscuit series) for
Kindergarten on April 2; Jacqueline Davies (author of
the Lemonade Wars series) for third, fourth and fifth
grade students on April 9 and Farmer Minor and Daisy
the pig who loves to read will be returning to
Frenchtown to visit Kindergarten students
on May 4th.
Music News…
Mrs. Tavella
In K, 1, and 2, we have been trying to sing,
Songs about green grass and birds,
To bring along Spring!
We have also been jigging for a while,
and listening to music from the Emerald Isle!
In grade 5 we are jammin' on recorder tunes,
practicing for our green karate belts coming soon.
We are also getting deep into the blues,
learning about chords and progressions,
and listening for major and minor clues.

From the Desk of Ms. Strever- Assistant Principal
Welcome to spring, it is finally here! Signs have been coming; the most notable for me was the
return of birds singing each morning!
I have been sharing with you many of our safety protocols, and will be reviewing dismissal
procedures. Following these procedures makes our dismissals go more smoothly and efficiently.
Dismissal procedures
We begin calling students for dismissal at 3:12 p.m. All students are packed ready to go home at this
time. During the last period of the day, teachers distribute notices, give reminders for upcoming events,
etc. It is important for students to be there during that time to be sure they have any information shared
at that time. School concludes at 3:20. If it is necessary to have a student(s) picked up for early
dismissal, they must be picked up by 2:45. This includes any child being dismissed from a classroom
event, as well as any siblings. If you are not able to pick up a child by 2:45, you will be asked to go to
the cafeteria to follow our dismissal procedures.
Students who have been given dismissal passes or who are called by name come to the cafeteria to meet
parents. For the safety and security of our students, no parent is to wait in the front lobby or go down to
a classroom. All children being picked up are dismissed from the cafeteria tables, which are assigned to
grade levels. Parents park in the back of the building near door 9 and wait in line to enter. The back
cafeteria door #9 is opened at 3:20; you must show your parent/family pass. If you do not have the pass,
you must show a license or photo ID. This is the safety and security protocol of the Trumbull Public
Schools. The parent must sign the child out in the dismissal log in the cafeteria. The parent and child
exit out of door #10 to keep congestion at the doors to a minimum. All students are to be picked up no
later than 3:35.
Students who go home on the buses are called down by bus number, as the buses arrive. Two buses are
called at a time, both by number and color. Teachers are on bus duty, and lead students out to the bus.
Older students are monitors who escort our kindergarten students to the front of the bus lines. The
students line up in the following order to proceed to the bus: K, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. This assures that the
kindergarten students are seated in the front of the bus, and then the bus fills from the back to the front
with the other grades in order.
IF there is a last minute change of plans and a student is not to take the bus home, or is normally a pickup and must take the bus home, we must know by 3:00. It is very difficult to make a change at the height
of dismissal, and it is confusing and sometimes frightening for your child.
Have a fantastic spring break!

READ ALOUD DAY!
2015 Caldecott Medal Winner
This year’s Read Aloud will take place on
Thursday, April 9th. Guest readers from
the community will come in and read a
book to each classroom across the district.
This year’s theme is “How Does a Garden
Grow”! This coincides with the town’s
One Book, One Town program. Read
Aloud is supported by the Trumbull
Rotary Club and is being coordinated by
the Curriculum Department. We are
looking forward to the wonderful titles
that have been chosen for each grade
level. Each class will get to keep the book
that is read to the class.
The Adventures of
Beekle: The Unimaginary Friend, illustrated and
written by Dan Santat and published by Little,
Brown and Company, a division of Hachette Book
Group, Inc.
In four delightful “visual chapters,” Beekle, an
imaginary friend, undergoes an emotional journey
looking for his human. Santat uses fine details,
kaleidoscopic saturated colors, and exquisite
curved and angular lines to masterfully convey the
emotional essence of this special childhood
relationship.
