QR codes, science test, book orders...

Book order forms came home on Monday.  Please send in your order or place your order online by next Friday, the 12th.

Several parents are already signed up on Home Connect, which means you are able to receive emails when your child takes an AR test.  Mrs. Preas is encouraging each parent to sign up and to be aware when their child takes an AR test.  If you are not signed up, a letter with log in instructions will be coming home in the Dolphin Folder on Monday.

The students have been writing a narrative about a time when they were successful. The other day they got with a partner and peer edited their paper. Here are some pics:


 

 



The students are going to record themselves reading their final copy.  When you come to your parent conference at the end of the month, you will be able to use your smart phone or ipad to scan a QR code and you will hear your child reading their story.  So, get your scan app ready!  I will have an iPad available for parents who don't have the app.

Please send in Monster Mash ticket money and order form as soon as possible. 

Next Friday the Student Council will have their first school store and fundraiser.  We will be raising money for Heavenly Hats again this year.  For $1, the students may wear a hat on Friday.   I have a crazy hat that I wear every year.  I'm looking forward to seeing the different kids of hats the kids will wear.

We will have a Sound and Light Energy test on Wednesday, the 10th.  Students will be bringing home their notebooks to study from.  Please make sure the notebooks come back to school everyday.

Also on Wednesday we will be having a math test on double digit multiplication.

I will be sending home conference times next week.  If your child has a younger brother or sister and you have already scheduled that conference, please let me know when it is and I will schedule our conference near the same time.  I have already heard from a few of you...thanks!

Orders for the 5th grade shirt are coming home soon.  The t-shirts are going to have an awesome design!  We have talked about our color and our class will be a fuschia/magenta color.  The kids call it "wow pink" !!  The shirt will be $9.  They are going to loooove it!!!

Have a fabulous weekend!!!
