Weekly News 3/9-3/13

Good Morning!

This week is going to be a great one...
Here are the things on which we will be working:

  • 5th graders should still be gathering pledges for the MATH-A-THON. This is an academic fundraiser, that reinforces important math skills. Did you know it takes roughly $10,000 to get all of our kids to our year end activities? We actually have to pay to use the district buses!
  • Both grades are beginning their culminating task in Module 4, Language Arts. This task attempts to mirror the structure of the state tests, which will begin in April.
  • Picture Day was today- the kids look delightful!
  • In science we continue to study the rock cycle and the weather.
  • In Math, 4th grade is working on multiplying fractions and 5th grade is learning what it means to divide fractions.
Our web site is up and running! It will be a process to get it going, but beginning this week, we will post our homework there, in case you need it. All of my contact information is contained in a QR code- so you can point your cell phone at the screen and have all of my information.

Have a great week!
Mrs. Alberg-Burbank
