Ms. Jones' Jams
Beginning in April, ALL of Ms. Jones 5th grade feeder gifted students will be serviced on Wednesdays due to FSA testing schedules. Gifted buses and school counselors have been notified. No more gifted classes on Mondays due to FSA testing.
Ms. Jones third grade gifted students did an AWESOME job presenting their Music Composers Box-It Projects! I am so proud of the time and effort they put into their cooperative research. It showed in their presentations. You should be very proud of them!! I know that Mrs. Godbolt and I were.
Ms. Jones fourth and fifth grade gifted classes have been diligently studying cryptography and are wrapping it all up this week. We have had a WONDERFUL time with codes and ciphers. We've learned that they've played a part in wars throughout our history and still do! Your children are experts!! All of our students are looking forward to a much deserved Spring Break. Enjoy and come back rested and rejuvenated!!
Ms. Brady's Big News
Ms. David-Massett's Darlings
5th graders should be working on memorizing their lines for the upcoming play and Spring Break is a great time to get a lot done. Encourage your child to make a recording of all the other lines in the scene, with long pauses where the assigned character would speak. Then he or she can play it back and fill his or her dialogue in.
