Our Book Fair will be open from 5:00โ€“6:00 PM tonight, before Grandparent Bingo begins. ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ›๏ธ

You do NOT have to be attending Grandparent Bingo to shop! All Summerfield families are welcome to stop by between 5:00 and 6:00 PM to browse and purchase items from the Book Fair.

Every book you purchase puts a great story into a childโ€™s hands AND helps us bring more resources, technology, and exciting opportunities to our Sharks.

๐Ÿ“š Buy books. Support our school. Create opportunities.
๐Ÿฆˆ Thatโ€™s Shark Nation at work!

We hope to see you tonight! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿฉต

๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿฆˆ Can Sharks make music with science? Absolutely! ๐Ÿ”ฌ๐ŸŽต

Our 3rdโ€“5th grade Sharks are invited to dive into this monthโ€™s At-Home Science Challenge: Musical Water Glasses! ๐Ÿ’ง๐ŸŽถ

Using just glasses, water, and a spoon, students can explore sound energy and pitch by changing the amount of water in each glass. Fill, tap, listen, compare, and investigate:

๐Ÿ”Ž How does the amount of water affect the sound you hear?

Take the learning even further! Ask your young scientist to describe the pattern they notice, make a prediction, and use evidence from their investigation to explain their thinking.

And who knows? Your kitchen might turn into a science lab AND a concert hall! ๐ŸŽผ๐Ÿ”ฌ

At Summerfield, we want our Sharks to discover that science is everywhere, even right at home! ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿฆˆ๐Ÿ’™

๐Ÿฆˆ๐Ÿ’™ Building Our Classroom Family, One โ€œMe Bagโ€ at a Time! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿฆˆ

During Ms. Sweeneyโ€™s KG morning meeting, our Sharks had a special opportunity to learn a little more about one another through โ€œMe Bags!โ€ ๐Ÿ›๏ธโœจ

Each student filled a bag with a few of their favorite things and then shared them with the class. From special treasures to favorite hobbies and interests, every bag told a little story about the person holding it.

Activities like this are about so much more than sharing favorite things. They help our students build connections, discover what they have in common, appreciate what makes each person unique, and create a classroom where everyone feels like they belong. ๐Ÿ’™

At Summerfield, we know strong relationships are the foundation for strong learning. Classmates become teammates, classrooms become families, and together we become a stronger Shark Nation! ๐Ÿฆˆ๐Ÿค

Registration is now open for Girls on the Run for girls in grades 3-5!
Girls on the Run is a positive, confidence-building program that inspires girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident. Through engaging lessons, physical activity, and meaningful discussions, participants develop important life skills, build friendships, and prepare for a celebratory 5K event.

The season begins the week of September 21, and space is limited. Practices will be held on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and participants are expected to attend both days each week. Families should also plan for student pick-up at 3:50 p.m. on practice days.

To learn more and register, please visit the Girls on the Run Registration page: https://www.pinwheel.us/register/index/2026FallGirlRegistration?sid=664d95634931436baaff5d37e54e2188

Families who would like additional information are invited to attend a Virtual Q&A Session on September 10 to learn more about the program and receive assistance with registration. Additional details can be found in the attached flyer.

We hope your daughter will join us for a fun-filled season of friendship, personal growth, confidence-building, and achievement! ๐ŸŒŸ

๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿฆˆ SCIENCE DOESNโ€™T STOP WHEN THE SCHOOL DAY ENDS! ๐Ÿ โœจ

Our Kโ€“2 Summerfield Sharks can dive into science right at home with this monthโ€™s At-Home Science Challenge: Treasure Box Sorting! ๐Ÿ”Ž

Families, grab a collection of everyday household objects and challenge your young scientist to observe, describe, compare, and classify them by different properties:

๐Ÿ”น Rough or smooth
๐Ÿ”น Hard or soft
๐Ÿ”น Light or heavy
๐Ÿ”น Big or small

๐ŸŒŸ Ready for an extra challenge? Mix everything back together and ask your child to sort the SAME objects in a completely different way!

But hereโ€™s where the real science magic happens: Ask your child WHY they placed each object in that group. ๐Ÿ’ญ That simple conversation encourages them to explain their thinking, make connections, and think like a scientist!

๐Ÿ  Simple materials
๐Ÿ’ฌ Family conversations
๐Ÿ”Ž Curious minds
๐Ÿฆˆ Summerfield Sharks exploring beyond the classroom!

Because at Summerfield, learning has no boundaries! ๐Ÿš€

For 3rdโ€“5th graders who are struggling with foundational reading skills, weโ€™d like to share resources with parents and guardians interested in practice with their child on specific missing reading skills without making anyone feel like they are doing โ€œbaby work.โ€

Struggling readers often need explicit instruction in syllable patterns, vowel patterns, prefixes/suffixes, roots, and decoding multisyllabic wordsโ€”not simply more independent reading.
The three resources we HIGHLY recommend:
- Florida Center for Reading Research (FCRR) has many printable resources, videos, and strategies to help.
- UFLI offers Parent Resource Hub and Foundational skills.
- Reading Rocket has parent-friendly information, activities, and intervention resources.

CALLING ALL STUDENT ARTISTS! ๐Ÿ–๏ธ Itโ€™s time to show off your creativity with our Every Day Matters Poster Contest. In partnership with United Way Suncoast, weโ€™re challenging students to show why coming to school every day makes a difference. Use a powerful slogan, meaningful artwork, or both to share your unique perspective on what motivates you to show up.

The contest will run from Monday, August 31, to Friday, September 11. Posters must be submitted via school mail (Route 7) to our Attendance Coordinator, Thomas Lefevre.

๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿฆˆ Building Connections!๐Ÿฆˆ๐Ÿ’™

Sometimes building a strong school family starts with something as simple as a fist bump! ๐Ÿ‘Š

Mr. Bond is making connections one student at a time, reminding our Sharks that they are seen, valued, and part of something bigger. These small moments help build trust, relationships, and the sense of belonging that makes Summerfield more than a school. It makes us a family!

Has your childโ€™s teacher done something to make them feel seen, valued, or heard? Let us know here!
