Week of 16-20th

This is a super busy week!
Students have their project sales day tomorrow. Students need to bring change to make change. 

In my math class on Thursday, we have a sort of mid-term on what we have done so far this year. It is worth the same amount as a test, 100 points.

This grading period ends on THURSDAY! Thursday is the last to take tests to get our required 18 points. I have given several hours of class time for students to make their goal, as well as offered half point fourth grade books to test on. In the next nine weeks, all students really need to make an effort to read chapter books.

Thursday, we have a test in Science from the Botany booklet. A completed study guide will come home tomorrow, so look for it in their backpacks.The study guide has everything that will be on the test.

Our Christmas/Harry Potter party will be Friday. We also hope to present The Best Christmas Pageant Ever play for all parents during the party around 1:00. Our Harry Potter activities will be earlier in the day, so our party can be a little less structured. :)

On a personal note,
I am grateful for the time I have had with this very loveable group of kids. I am looking forward to new adventures in the new year! 
                                Merry Christmas to all!
