Week of December 16th Update

In reading and writing, the students will be working on their second opinion writing piece!

In social studies, we will be practicing a reader's theater based on the American Revolution!

In math, we're taking our test on fractions. We'll complete it like we did last term: review a section/skill for the first part of class, and take that section during the last part of class.

In science, we're finishing our unit on sound. The Smarties will take the test Wednesday, and the Rulers will take the test Thursday because of the adjusted schedule with Spanish (each week, the students only get four days of science because they have an odd Spanish time. The Rulers do not have science on Wednesdays because of this. That's why they'll take the test Thursday. The Smarties do not have science on Thursdays).

Winter Learning Celebration
Our Winter learning celebration will be held this Friday, December 20th from 1:00-2:15. Please plan to join us! *Please note that parking can be difficult at FAVE, especially when so many classes will be having celebrations at the same time. Please plan accordingly.

Clothing/Toy Drive
One student from Miss Ary's homeroom class will be moving to Ethiopia in January. She has graciously offered to take any clothing or toys that we collect! Feel free to bring in anything that you would like to donate. We are collecting the items in Miss Ary's homeroom! Thank you!

Parent Portal
For ela and social studies, please refer to the parent portal to see how your child is doing. Miss Ary puts in a few grades per week! Because math skills are continuously being retaught and grades are constantly changing, Mrs. Broman-Fulks does not update the parent portal as often as Miss Ary. You can use your child's success on homework tasks to gauge where he or she may need help. Please contact Mrs. Broman-Fulks if you have specific questions about math. *If you do not know your login, please ask Susie Girardeau at the front desk of the 4/5 Academy. 

Have a great week! -Miss Ary
