LA - finish up word work #5. Normally the sheets should be completed by the Friday of each week, but we were late getting this one last week, and we missed Thursday's class time to work on it.
Book talk projects are due Friday, March 28th. Please take you time with these - the idea is to show us that you've read the book and understood it well. What you show us needs to be important to the story, and well-explained.
Math - times and division facts to 9x9
We are doing a Spring Basket fundraiser for the grade 5 Snyder Mountain trip - please send in items this week.
Last Monday, we were very lucky to have a presentation by Donna and Andy. Order forms went home, and need to come back ASAP.

Week of March 10 - 14
LA - Before the break, students were given a book response / summary sheet, which is due Friday.
We have started a big-ish book report / book talk project. Everyone was given a sheet which had 7 different ideas for projects on it - acting, drawing, writing, building, etc. The goal of the project is to show that they have read and understood the entire book. Each student will be doing his or her own project, unless they have chosen to act out a scene. By this Friday, everyone has to know which book and which project they'll be doing, and projects will be presented Friday, March 28.
Book orders also went out before the break, and are due back this Friday.
Math - continue practicing times tables. Most students are fluent now, but some are still struggling. Feel free to quiz your student to check in!
We have started math intervention groups, and many students are now in small groups first thing in the morning. We will continue this until our outside Paw Fit starts up again, and based on need, perhaps longer. Groups are flexible and based on what needs are in our classes.
This Wednesday, Harvey Studios will be in the building to take team and group shots, so please have your student here if he or she was involved in a school activity this year.
The coffee order has been submitted, and they're getting it ready for us!
Some of you may have noticed we have had a buzzer / doorbell system installed at the school. Doors will be open on arrival for busses, but locked the rest of the day. It is a bit of a headache, but is absolutely the best way to keep our little people safe, and to know who is coming and going.
