Class News
v Thank you so much to Mrs. Swancy, our room mom for doing such a great job planning our Valentine’s Party last Friday. Also, thank you to all the moms and dads that provided treats for the other students in our class. J
v I have created several tests online for the practice CRCT that your student can be doing at home. Your student knows where to go, what to look for, and what to do. Please be practicing these tests with your children. Your child will have their GA test ID and the password to logon to: www.georgiaoas.org to access the practice tests at home.
v The solar system projects were AWESOME! Each student did a wonderful job making their model and presenting it to the class. Nice job, everyone!
v Our field trip last Thursday was also so much fun! I think the kids really learned a lot about the Revolutionary War. If you want to see pictures, click on this link! http://share.shutterfly.com/share/received/welcome.sfly?fid=1dac2aa3a292dda6&sid=8AZs2TZu0bM2zO
Just a Reminder:
v Fill out your Reading Log every night!
v Do all of your homework at home so that you don’t get stuck doing it at lunch, for recess, or having double homework the next night!
Social Studies Hint for the Week:
Ask your child to tell you the first four events on the “Road to the Revolutionary War.” They should be able to tell you the events, and explain what they are!
