Progress reports are coming home tomorrow (Thursday, September 22) for any student with a C average or below in any subject area. You may keep the progress report for your records, but please sign the accompanying document and return in the envelope.
Reflections entry form is coming home this week. Do not misplace it. ALL 5th grade students are to complete a Reflection entry. This is a MANDATORY assignment. Students can choose the area in which they would like to enter. We would like these entries two days prior to the entry deadline on the form. This will give us a chance to check over entries and applications. This is an at-home assignment.
STATE TEST - I hope all students are learning their 50 states. Reminder - the state test is set for October 5th. That is now 2 weeks away.
Don't forget the MANDATORY parent meeting tonight. We expect to see ALL parents there. If there is an emergency and you absolutely cannot attend, nor can you send another adult in your place, it is up to you to contact me for the information that will be presented at this meeting.
Students need to be studying their spelling words each night. They are in their agendas. Spelling assessments are on Mondays.
The Civil War is done! We will have the assessment on Tuesday, September 27th. If students have been listening in class, they will be fine! Students are currently working on their study guide. I have been encouraging them to bring it home to work on as well. Due date was scheduled for Friday, but it is possible since we have lost some time that was set aside for completion of the study guide that I will extend this deadline. As of right now, students should still work to complete it Friday.
Many students have been doing a wonderful job discussing their chapter book on edmodo and completing all assignments. Some students have failed to keep up with any assignment. As a consequence, they were required to take a test on the book. Please encourage your students to log on to edmodo frequently. There are some great book discussions happening. The final assignment is due before we leave for Driftwood. I will not accept any late assignments, nor will there be an assessment for those that did not complete it. Students that do not complete this assignment will get a zero.
We have had 18 students join the 96% club for math facts! Congratulations!
Congrats to Makenna Brindley and Anna Hurst that finished 1st and 2nd in the Fun Run for our class. Way to go girls!
