Hello Parents,
This Tuesday, February 14, our class will have a card exchange for Valentine's Day. If your child is interested in participating, please make sure to have cards for all of the students. There are 24 in the class. I recommend that the cards are not individually addressed, but rather, have your child sign their name on the card. It will help a lot with distribution. If they would like to come to school with a special carrier bag or mailbox to carry their cards home, that is completely welcome! I will also have bags for them in case they are unable to bring one in. We will also have a small class party. Treats would be very much appreciated! Thank you parents for your continued help and support. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me. Have a wonderful night! Hello Parents,
Tomorrow, SRA will be having a jersey spirit day for all students. Students who participate can wear their favorite sport jersey for a $2.00 donation. This will also mark the last home basketball game of the season. The proceeds will go to the ASL class for field trips and activities. If participating, please make sure that your child comes to school in their normal uniform bottoms and shoes. Thank you and have a great night! Hello Parents,
Happy Monday! As we enter our final week before winter break begins, we have a few important announcements: 1. Minimum Days - Wednesday 12/14 - Friday 12/16 are minimum days. The elementary release time is at 12:20pm. 2. Report Cards - Report cards will be sent out this Friday. You will find the following in your report card envelope: a. Official grades for semester 1 b. Standards Sheet - This will help explain the overall standards that align with each reading/language arts category c. Math Facts Semester 1 Quiz - If your child has not gained proficiency with their multiplication math facts, I ask that they do practice over the break. If your child misses more than 5 questions or has at least one line of questions are blank, this suggests that they can use more review. We will begin our fractions unit when we return this January and the concepts rely heavily on an understanding of multiplication facts. There are numerous resources and worksheets online that can help your child practice. c. Language Arts Grade - Please be aware that your child's overall language arts grade is an AVERAGE of their Reading and Writing/LA scores. d. Character Progress Report - A character progress report will be emailed to you. This progress report does not tie in with the official report card. This report is used by me to inform you of your child's work and study habits during the semester. Thank you parents. Please feel free to email me with any questions. I hope all of you have a wonderful week! Take care. Hello Parents,
Tomorrow, the Media Tech Club is having a Santa Hat & Ugly sweater fundraiser. There will be a $2 (max) donation at the gate. Looking forward to seeing all of our students in their spirit gear! Have a good night. Hello Parents,
For the past few weeks, our students have been piloting a new reading and language arts curriculum. The assessments now have been done online. Tomorrow, the Friday folders will be sent home. You will notice that there are no reading quizzes. You and your child can check their reading scores by going to: https://www-k6.thinkcentral.com/ePC/index.do Your child should enter their username and password. Once logged in, click on 'My Scores.' By clicking on the questions links, you are able to see which questions and types were missed. Thank you parents and please feel free to email me with any questions. Have a great day. Hello Parents,
