quarter 4, week 5

Last week was crazy with testing, the kids all worked so hard. I'm very proud of them! We will continue to test this week and HOPE that we will be done with all tests on Monday;) With all of the testing, we were unable to get our supply lists finished, we will finish them this week and start building the following week. Gosh, we only have four weeks left! Thank you to all parents with all of the awesome treats! If the following students can bring snacks on Monday, that would be great;)

Lainee Reid, Cassie Edgmon, Casey Anderson, and Connor Oceguera

Hope you all are having a fabulous weekend! ;)

Quarter 4, Week 4 &5

   This week, we continued to review for SBAC testing (Smarter Balance Testing). In 5th grade, we took a CRT Science test on Wednesday. This coming up week the 5th graders will complete the SBAC Math Test on Monday and the Reading Test on Wednesday. On Tuesday and Thursday we will continue to work and review on Reading, Writing, and Language Standards. In Projects, we did not get as far as I thought, students should come home with a supply list for their new Forces of Nature/Natural Disaster project on Monday. We did get a chance to introduce the project on Thursday, ask your students about what their new project is going to be, I think they are all pretty excited. 
   Thank you to the parents who supplied the snacks on Wednesday for the Science test, and thank you in advance to the parents who will supply the snacks on the next two Mondays and Wednesdays.  Please just send in small, simple, snacks, and please limit the sugar :)  Also, we are allowing gum and mints while testing as long as there are no issues with the gum. 

Just to remind you the schedule for snacks is as follows:

Monday April 20 - 
Jaylee McEwen
Kaitlyn Hert
Gabriela Hockenberry-Grimes

Wednesday April 22-

Week 4/ Quarter 4


   I hope everyone had a great spring break and Easter! I will keep this pretty short and sweet. We will continue to practice for Smarter Balance testing and review Language standards. In Projects we will start our Forces of Nature project. You should be expecting a supply list by the end of the week as we will start building the following week. Also, I am still looking for a parent that could take over PE on Thursdays from 3:15-4:00. If you are able to come in at this time, it is a great way to get volunteer hours and it would only be about 5 or 6 times. Please email me if you are able to help with this. 

I hope everyone is having a great weekend!
