Weekly Wrap Up

Good morning!
Morgan wrote our blog post on Friday, and I completely forgot to publish it. 

The kids had a lot of fun seeing Junie B. Jones and hiding eggs for our Kindergarten buddies on Friday! It was a busy day :)

This week will bring us MAP testing. We will be testing tomorrow (TUESDAY) and Wednesday. On Tuesday, we will be testing from 9:00 - 10:30 and on Wednesday from 1:00 - 3:00. We will test Math on Tuesday and English Language Arts on Wednesday. We will have a snack those days and be ready to give our very best. Please help your child be ready for the day by having a good night's sleep and a healthy breakfast both days! I did not send a reading log home for this week (nor will there be any other homework). If you wanted to have lunch with your child on Wednesday, our lunch time will be changed to accommodate testing that afternoon. We will eat lunch on Wednesday at 12:00.

On Monday, April 13th, we will be taking a field trip to The Candy Factory downtown to kick off our economics unit. I was mistaken when I said we would not need chaperones or parent volunteers. We will need two or three parents to meet us at The Candy Factory on Monday at 10:00. The field trip will last about an hour. Due to space, younger siblings should not attend. 

We will have specials as usual this week: Music, Art, Library Checkout and Media, PE, Music

Dear Parents,

       

     This week was busy!  On Monday we learned how to add fractions. On Tuesday in writing we picked a short/small topic to give a “sample” of it if you know what I mean. On Wednesday in writing we shared our short/small “sample” on the carpet together oh and I almost forgot the writing sample was for persuasive writing! We also learned about Perimeter. The deffenishtion of   Perimeter is: The distance around a figure. On Thursday we learned a little about Area putting Perimeter aside for the day. The deffenishtion of Area is: The amount of space a plane figure covers. Now Friday was the most exciting day of the week! Starting at 8:55 we went to Stevens College to see the play of Junie B. Jones goes to school. At 11:00 it stopped. Another fun thing we did Friday was we hid Easter eggs

for Miss Reinkemeyer’s kindergarden class( also known as our buddy class!)J That was our week, exciding right?
