Parents,
Vacation is over and we are back to work! Students have completed their 3rd book report and their next one is due Aptil 17th. Please make sure your child has chosen their new book. They need to let us know the title.
PICTURE DAY is Friday, March 2nd. The slips went home yesterday.
Science Fair permission slips and "the big questions" were due yesterday. Please have a conversation with your child to make sure they have handed them in. :)
We will be sending home problem solving activities for homework. This is in addition to the daily math assignments. Students will receive the sheet on Fridays to be returned the following Friday. This is to help improve problem solving skills. Thank you.
Enjoy your week!
Fully Responsbile, Organized and Growing in 5th Grade!
