Looking ahead to the week of February 19 (Week A)

Students are celebrating acts of kindness during "Kindness Week."  They contributed to our kindness wall, by writing one way they've shown kindness to others and one way someone has show kindness to them.  You can check out their kindness hearts on D-hall.





Students read American Revolutionary biographies.  They'll collaborate to make Google presentations for their South Carolina heroes and heroines.







Hi, families! I hope you all are having a great week!

Half-day:  Students will have a half day Friday, February 16.  They will be served lunch, then dismiss at 11:30.  If your child's mode of transportation changes, please be sure to send a note or call the front office.

State House trip:  We will be visiting the State House Tuesday, February 20.  Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather and wears tennis shoes.  Also, please make sure to send a lunch with your child, if that is the option you chose on his/her permission form.

A message from fourth grade:  Please see the flyer below, regarding their grade level charity.



Looking ahead to next week:  As historians, students will wrap up their government study and enjoy a trip to the State House.  They'll also kick off their new science unit, heat and matter.  As mathematicians, they will learn how to measure to the nearest inch, half-inch, and quarter-inch.  We will not be using Engage New York or Envision for this unit, but you can help your child by having him/her measure various objects around the house to the nearest aforementioned inches.  As readers, students will study how illustrations explain and enhance the mood, setting, and characters of a story.  As writers, they'll learn about the use of apostrophes and how to write an opinion piece.

Thank you again for all of your support!  Have a great weekend!
