Seriously, where has the year gone? I cannot believe that it is May and we are so close to the end of the 4th grade!
M-STEP
We have completed 2 of 4 M-Step Assessments. I am very proud of the hard work and dedication that your child has put into these tests. They are long and tiring, but your children have been trying their best! We will finish the other 2 tests on Tuesday and Thursday next week.
Please make sure:
- Your child comes to school on time
- Your child has gotten plenty of sleep
- Your child has eaten a healthy breakfast.
Math
In between M-Step review and tests, we have begun Chapter 11. We will be finishing that Chapter up in the next few days as it is a short chapter.
Weekly Math:
Every Friday your child should bring home a math practice paper. The math worksheet will be a review of concepts already covered in the classroom. Students should be able to do the work independently. However, if you notice your child is struggling with a concept, please help him/her. Math practice is due back on Thursday. If your child doesn’t return it by Thursday, he/she will receive a pink “missing/incomplete assignment” sticker for not being responsible and automatically miss Friday Rewards. Students who do not complete the work or meet grade level expectations will revisit the concepts during Friday Rewards.
Due Thursday 5/11 – Division Practice: Lesson 45 & 46
Permission Slips
Your Child brought home 2 permissions slips this week!
- The first is for permission to go to the Center for the Performing Arts to Practice for the Spring Concert. There is not cost for this, but it does need to be signed and returned A.S.A.P. We will be going to the Center for the Performing Arts on Thursday may 18th.
- The second permission slip is for our last field trip – The MSU Sea Grant Field Trip! We will be going on this trip on Tuesday, May 30! The permission slip is due back by Friday May 19. The cost for this field trip is $15.00. If you are interested in chaperoning this field trip, please send in a note or email to let me know ASAP. There are limited spots for adults on the boat due to US Coast Guard regulations. I will do a lottery to select our 4 chaperones based on who expresses interest by Friday, May 19th. The cost for parent volunteers is also $15.00.
