Below are the dates for the Spring 2023 MCAS tests. Please make sure your child is in school for the tests. Children always do better and take more time when they take it altogether. When they make-up the test, they tend to rush through it.

ELA grade 4 - April 10 and 11

Math grade 3 - May 8 and 9

Math grade 4 - May 11 and 12

**Being in school consistently is important to ensuring children gain a strong foundation for subsequent learning.

**Research shows that children, regardless of gender, socioeconomic status or ethnicity, lose out when they are chronically absent (15 or more absences, whether excused or unexcused).

**Children chronically absent in kindergarten show lower levels of achievement in math, reading and general knowledge during first grade.

**Those with a lower socio-economic status who were chronic absentees in kindergarten had the lowest performance in reading and math in fifth grade

This week Mrs. Paoletta's and Mrs. Garofalo's fourth grades classes made their own mind jars. They have been learning, through the Choose Love curriculum, how to calm their thoughts when their mind may need a break. The water that is in the jar represents the mind’s natural state. The glitter represents each thought they notice. This was a fun activity that they all enjoyed. The students will now use these bottles as a calming strategy when they get stressed or feel overwhelmed.

The fourth grade studied four contemporary artists that use the symbol of love (hearts) in their work. The artists studied were Romero Brito, James Goldcrown, Chris Uphues, and Jim Dines. The artists and students used chalk, pastels, paper, scissors, glue, sharpies, etc. They balanced warm and cold colors and, created, with the pastels, a spray point look.

Each week a student in Mrs. Calvanese's class and Mrs. Regh's class chooses an experiment. The student follows a format for a lab report and presents it to the class. The student then performs the experiment. This week, in Mrs. Regh's class, a boy placed M and Ms on a plate and used warm water to dissolve the sugar coating and make a rainbow. A child in Mrs. Calvanese's class showed the class how if you take identical glasses and fill each one with a different amount of water, when tapped with a spoon, each glass will make a different sound.

Just a reminder - please be sure to call your child out when they will not be in school. (978) 567-6170. You can leave a message on the absentee line. Also, if your child enters the building late, after 8:35 am, he/she should have a parent with them to sign them in. Thank you!

We have three tables of sweatshirts, jackets, lunchboxes and backpacks. Please label your child's belongings. That way we can be sure that the items get back to their owners.

Also, if your child is missing clothing or a backpack or lunchbox, feel free to stop by and check out our tables.
