For the week of 3-2-09, students are taking the Terra Nova test. It is a lot of tedious work, but it is also very important. For this reason, there will be no homework assigned this week. Also, there will be no homework club. Make sure your child gets plenty of rest, eats a healthy breakfast, and brings a snack with them to school. Their snack should be something healthy that can be eaten quickly without making a big mess. Some ideas are grapes, apples, carrot sticks, crackers, and pretzels.
On Wednesday, March 25th, we will be taking a field trip to the Museum of Science and Industry. Permissions slip have been handed out, and are due by Friday, March 13th. Please return the permission slips along with the $7.00 fee for the cost of the bus and labs as soon as possible.
Next week (3-9-09) we will be easing back into the curriculum. I will not be here on Monday and possibly Tuesday. I have a family matter to attend to, and I am not quite sure of the duration of time that I will be gone. Students will have a substitute Monday and possibly Tuesday. Students that missed any days during Terra Nova testing will make up any missed tests this week. We will be starting a new unit in English, Math, and Social Studies. In Reading, we will continue with Because of Winn Dixie.
During this season of Lent, it may be helpful to reinforce what your child is learning in school, by talking with him or her at home about the importance of charity.
