Weekly Update: December 6, 2019

Hi Everyone!

 This has been such an exciting week at school with a snow day and Santa’s Workshop! The Christmas season is finally here!  

We have been asking all students to be sure they are memorizing the words to the songs they will sing in the Christmas Pageant.  We have begun preparations for that this week. They are performing so well!

***Please remind your child to continue memorizing the lyrics to the Christmas songs that they will sing as part of the pageant***They need to especially practice: "Oh Come All Ye Faithful," “The First Noel,” “Joy to the World,” and “Drummer Boy.” 

Upcoming Events:

Tuesday, December 10th---Social Studies Test

Tuesday, December 10^th—Christmas Concert: 1:00pm & 6:30pm

Friday, December 13^th---Lesson 6 Science Quiz

Thursday, December 19th---Chapter 4 Science Test (on lessons 4, 5, & 6)

Friday, December 20^th-Wednesday, January 1^st---Christmas Break

Math: We have moved on to Topic 5 this week. This is when we typically ask students to begin studying their math facts nightly as they begin working toward the goal of memorizing all of the multiplication facts. We will start testing them after Christmas break. Flash cards and iPad apps are the best way for them to study.

This website lists a number of free math fact apps. Xtramath is also a great website for learning their facts!

Writing: Students have been working so hard finishing up their elf applications! Check out our new bulletin board!
