Newsletter February 22 - 24

,
Hi parents!  I hope that you are all having a wonderful Mardi Gras!  My surgery was successful, but the recovery has been fairly miserable.  I have taken a turn for the better today, though and expect to be back at full speed on Thursday.

This has been such a wonderful unit and the kids have learned so much about the Revolutionary War.  Thank you so much to all the parents and teachers who made it so great.  Thanks also to everyone who helped out with the Valentine's Day party...it was so much fun!

News to Know

  • Will Brett is this week's snack helper.  Luke Weathersby will be next week's helper.
  • I sent out an email about this unit's book.  If you would like me to order one for your child, the cost is $7 and I will be placing the order on Wednesday.
  • BDS jersey orders are due this Friday.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
  • The culmination performance is this Friday at 2:00.  Grades 4-6 will be performing plays at 1:30.
  • We will begin taking the SAT test on Thursday, March 22 and continue into the week of the 26th.  We will be occasionally reviewing for the test starting next week, so your child's attendance is very important during this time.

Language Arts
We will finish reading Johnny Tremain and take the comprehension test on Friday.  We will practice combining sentences with adjectives and writing friendly letters.

Math
We will wrap up our topic on fractions and take the Topic 12 test on Friday.  We will spend Thursday in review and I will send home a study guide Thursday evening.

Social Studies / Science
We will finish making our maps for the culmination performance.
