How Can I Help My Child These Last Days of School??
Thanks for asking! We just happen to have some tips!
- Make sure you are aware of the due dates on both the Science booklet and Math booklet. If you don’t know what these are, contact your child’s teacher NOW! If you help your child review nightly, they will perform better on the EOG’s!
- Continue to work on vocabulary found in those booklets. Your child will see that on the EOG!
- Make sure your child is at school! Dates for EOG are Wednesday, June 1 (Reading), Thursday, June 3 (Math), and Friday, June 3 (Science).
- Encourage your child to do their best. Here’s what we say: (1) Take your time. (NO MATTER HOW SMART--No student should finish anywhere near the first break during testing!) (2) Check your work twice. The first time is to make sure bubbles have been filled in correctly. THEN go back and REREAD and REWORK everything! This will prevent careless errors!
Last Field Trip
Fifth grade will go bowling and then to a picnic at Fourth of July Park in Kernersville on THURSDAY, JUNE 9th. The price of the field trip will be $15 per student which will include bowling and soda while at the bowling alley and picnic lunch at the park. This will also pay for our pizza party on 6/8/16.
Only students are invited to participate in bowling. Parents are invited to join us at Fourth of July Park Shelter #2 at 11:30. We also need volunteers to help serve food so we can move students quickly. Please indicate your ability to help!
