I apologize for not posting in a while. Our 5th graders have been very busy with preparing for the Wax Museum, the excitement of Halloween, Report Cards, Conferences, circulating illnesses, and getting ready for JA BizTown.
YAY!
We want to say how proud we are of all our 5th Graders for the AMAZING work they did preparing for and performing in the Wax Museum.
THANKS!
Thank you very much to our parents who helped with Halloween festivities, and parents who will be helping with BizTown. We appreciate everything you do more than you know.
MATH
We are trying out a new plan in our math instruction. Math instruction in the homebase classroom will still look the same as it has been, however we will now start ending homebase math instruction at 10:00 and students will be divided into 3 groups based on a common assessment score (an assessment given to all 5th graders). The groups will be for re-teaching, re-enforcing, and expanding the learning. Other schools that have done similar groupings have seen great results from it, and we expect to see positive results as well.
CAN YOU CROCHET?
We are hoping to begin learning to crochet on Thursday 12/1 during our rotation times (9-12 am). Please let us know if you are able to crochet and would like to help. We would love to have you.
UPCOMING EVENTS
11/23-11/25 Thanksgiving recess. Enjoy!
