Math 5 - students in my Math 5 class are working on multiplying decimals. The children seem to really understand how to do this. I will be tutoring Tuesday from 3:00 to 3:30. There is no homework tonight. Please review basic multiplication facts with your child.

Math 6 - students learned how to divide a decimal by a decimal. I was pleased with how quickly the children caught on to this new topic. Homework for tonight is practicing dividing decimals - page P2-9.

The first quarter ends on Wednesday, October 21st. Report cards will be sent home on Wednesday, October 27th.

The 5th graders practiced their Grammar Rap today. They all sang like little angels. Our showtime is Wednesday at 10:20. Hopefully they will be as good as they were today. Hope to see any parents that are free on Wednesday.

Grammar Rap!

We are busy practicing our Grammar Rap. Ask you child to listen to it. We will be presenting this on October 21st at 10:20 in the gym. If you are free, please plan on joining us.

I enjoyed seeing all the 5th grade parents last night. For those of you that missed it we announced that the children can bring a in a "HEALTHY" snack on Wednesdays and Thursdays since our lunch is so late on these days. No candy please! We are also allowing the children to bring in water bottles to use throughout the day. Please be sure to use a bottle with a top that closes and remember to put your child's name on their bottle.

Tomorrow is Picture Day! Please be sure to return your forms with the pose and background color you would like for your child's picture.

Remind your child to continue practicing their "Grammar Rap" for our program on October 21st. Parents are welcome to attend. The presentation will be at 10:20 in the gym and very brief.

Our "Ice Cream Sundae" day is quickly approaching. Your child has less than 2 weeks to get all their "Sundae" treats. Please remind your child to read and take AR tests.
