Today, we celebrated a few things. We celebrated the 100th day of school by completing a few fun activities. Ask your student about them.
We also celebrated my half birthday (yes, I am just a big kid) and Dekhari's birthday with some special treats. The weather was a celebration in itself, as the students finally got to have outdoor recess!
We went to the computer lab for our last class day of typing the letters to Barack Obama. I am so proud of the student work on these. Not everyone has finished, but everyone has shown growth as a writer and peer editor with this assignment. The kids are hoping he will write back. We will see!
We have been doing some preparation for taking the ISAT tests. In math, we discussed how to solve multiple choice and short answer questions. We will also spend some computer lab time next week on practice exercises. The students have certainly learned a great deal so far this year. It's nice to see how much they retained.
Several things went home today:
- This week's mark chart slip needs to be signed.
- A form about parent conferences needs to be signed.
- A form about the Valentine's party next Friday has important information.
Students are asked to bring a shoebox to decorate for valentines. If they bring valentines to school, they must hand them to all the students. A list went home today with the names of classmates. I hope I spelled them all right!
Have a wonderful weekend! Make sure to have your child show you his/her social studies test. They did a wonderful job on them as a whole. They can do corrections if they did not do well.
