Hello Parents and Students,

"To remind you, effective Thursday, April 11, cell phones, smartwatches, and earphones of all sorts are to be out of sight and not used during the school day. Of course students can have them set to silent in their pockets or backpacks." 

Please reinforce this new rule with your student. If any cell phones or smartwatches are seen during class, students will be asked to put them away immediately.

OUR WEEK AT A GLANCE

Math: We will continue with lessons 11-14 in Module 5 this week. We will also be reviewing math concepts that we have learned throughout the year in preparation of CAASPP testing. 

Math tests will come home on Monday. Math test corrections are due Friday. 

The goal going forward is to master all multiplication facts x0-x12. Once students master their multiplication facts, they will move on to their related 0-12 division fluency. 

Reader's Workshop: This week, we will finish our Benchmark books: Advancements in Technology. We will also be focusing on reviewing skills from throughout the year to help prepare students for CAASPP testing. 

Writer's Workshop: This week, we will finish our Spring Break writing. We will continue our informational writing project about the habitat, diet, anatomy and life cycle of bunnies. 

P.E.: Please dress appropriately on Monday and WEDNESDAY for P.E every week. 

REMINDERS

Happy Spring!

Mrs. Palmer
