In Math, we will finish up our exploration of Fractions and begin Measurement. We will begin studying Ecosystems in Science.
Because this is a short week with no classes on Friday, our weekly Spelling and Reading tests will take place on Thursday.
Report cards were sent home with students on Friday, 3/9. Parents, please sign and return just the envelope. You should keep the actual report card at home. If I need to meet with you regarding your child's progress, I enclosed a letter with the report card. You can simply follow the directions on this letter to schedule an appointment. If you have a need to meet with me but did not get a letter, please email me and I can get a copy of the letter to you that has the access code for the signup.
Students also came home with a foldable Operation Rice Bowl bank. As in past years, this is our Lenten mission, and we hope that your children can be as generous as possible. Money collected will go toward helping needy families in the area as well as those around the world. Please return donation boxes no later than March 23rd. Thank you for your generosity.
