Good
afternoon parents,
I
hope you all have had a wonderful week!
Next
week in…
Reading:
We will begin our book study on Stone Fox. The students always LOVE reading
this book!
Word
Work: We will continue doing a grammar review.
Writing:
Students will have the opportunity to free write to continue building their writing
stamina.
Reminders:
- The Artome Art Show is the night of the Talent Show (May 3rd) in the Gym. This fundraiser supports STEM and our Yearlong Projects for next year.
- As the
end of the year is approaching, I wanted to offer a group order for
Scholastic books! With summer comes extra time that students have, and as
a teacher I would love to see students reading frequently! I would
encourage you to buy some books that your child would be interested in
reading over the summer. Our class code is Q79JX. I will submit the order
on May 6th, so have your orders in by 8AM that day.
- Monday
begins our ELA testing. We will complete the ELA sections on Monday,
Tuesday, and Wednesday. Students will have a testing break on Thursday and
Friday. Please make sure you child arrives to school on time with lots of
rest and a full tummy (from a very healthy breakfast 😊).
I know testing can bring about a lot of nerves. I have tried reassuring
the students that they know everything they need to know for the test,
they have been practicing so hard in class. Monday is our “game day” where
they have the opportunity to show what they have been practicing in class.
Please continue to reassure them that this test does not define them and
as long as they try their best their teachers and parents will be proud of
them. I’m thankful that I get to be their little cheerleader for this “game day”!
Please
let me know if you have any additional questions. Have a fabulous weekend!
