Looking ahead to the week of April 18

Students enjoyed a geometry scavenger hunt around the school!  They looked for examples of parallel lines, intersecting lines, right angles, acute angles, and obtuse angles!  




The children truly enjoyed their Olympics-themed Field Day!  Thank you to all of the volunteers, who made it possible!
















Hi, families!  I hope you all had a great weekend!

Looking ahead:  In math, students will wrap up their study on geometry. The children will also begin a review of math, in preparation for the SC Ready Test.  They will have double math lessons this week, in an effort to wrap up our math units, before testing at the end of April.  Students will not have a science or social studies unit this week.  Please remind your child to practice his/her multiplication facts daily!  Students will continue their mixed multiplication quizzes throughout the remainder of the school year.  They will also retake any multiplication quizzes necessary to obtain their trail mix ingredients for our trail mix celebration in the spring.   As readers, students will revisit cold reads and learn about test-taking strategies.  As writers, the children will revisit suffixes and writing prompts.

Report Cards:  Please be sure to sign and return just the report card cover, as soon as possible!  This is a good time to look over your child's report card with him/her and set goals for the last nine weeks! 

SC Ready reminder:  Thank you all for considering to donate breakfast items, snacks, and juice to our class during the week of testing.  Please see the letter that went home in last week's communication folder from our Homeroom Mom, Mrs. Turner, if you'd like to donate!

Also, the following letter went home in last week's folder, too!  Be sure to read over it to learn more about testing week.




Have a wonderful week and thank you again for all that you do!
