The building projects are amazing!
ISTEP Testing
We begin our final round of ISTEP testing when we return from our long weekend. We have had a LOT of testing this year and the kids sometimes need a boost to endure another round. Last year, it seemed to boost the spirits of the kids when I had the parents write them a little note of encouragement. I will collect these and pass them out to the kids on our first day of testing. Please send your note in an envelope with your child's name on it and ask them to give it to me. :)
Math Facts
As we enter the final stretch, there are still several students that have not finished all 25 math fact lists. If your child is one of them, please consider practicing these lists as part of nightly homework until they are completed. These are for a grade and it is important that the students have these facts mastered.
Lid Mural
The focus story in our reader this week was about various murals found around the world. We are going to create a mural made from lids for our classroom. Please send in lids with no writing on them for our project if you have any. We do not need water bottle lids, but could use lids from other beverages of various colors.
