Don't forget to STRIDE!!!!
Stride Academy Homework REQUIRED
Starting this week, using Stride 80 minutes a week (20 min 4 times a week) is mandatory. Your child has been challenged. We have put up a football field on the wall. Their football player or cheerleader (they colored themselves) start at one end zone. Their goal is to move across the field to the other end zone. To do this, each week your child must meet their 80 minutes on Stride Academy goal. We will have twelve weeks to complete this challenge, including Spring Break. That means they only have 2 weeks that they can miss their goal. If they “score a touchdown,” meaning they met their 80 minutes goal 10 times, they get to attend a pajama, popcorn party the week of the STAAR test. There will be smaller rewards along the way. Please help them in their success by checking to make sure they are meeting their weekly goals.
REMEMBER TO ORDER YEARBOOKS!!!!!!

Learning Targets
Language Arts- Students will be writing a narrative about a time they learned a valuable lesson. On Wednesday, they will be taking a reading CBA. Please make sure your child is reading 30 minutes every single night. Making it a family fun time makes the experience memorable and enjoyable. Our kiddos loving reading is the goal!
Math- We will complete our instruction regarding division of fractions. The End of Unit will be Tuesday. Our next area of study is the division of decimal fractions. These lessons will be embedded in questions involving stem and leaf plots, dot plots and bar graphs as well as real life scenarios. Please encourage your child to be faithful to the 20 minutes of STRIDE homework every evening. It is a responsibility habit that will serve them well in middle school. :)
Science- We are continuing to observe our eco-columns. This week we are learning about the life cycles of plants and identifying parts of a plant. The carbon dioxide-oxygen cycle will be of relevance as we dig deeper into our eco-column studies. We will even start learning about metamorphosis.
