4 WEEKS!?!?!

A-Team,

I only have 4 weeks left with you! Where has the school year gone? I don't know about all of you, but it has been lightning quick for me. With that said, there is only 4 weeks left to turn in all missing work and get those grades up to 3s.

All students were given a copy of their progress report today (which is always viewable online in CLI) highlighting the work they have missing. Please review this over the weekend with your families and let me know ASAP if there are any assignments you need a new copy of. Otherwise, TURN IT IN!!! :) As always, your success is up to you - the 4th grader!

I'm looking forward to the remaining 4 weeks. Remember school is not over yet! Keep up the hard work!

Xtra Math

A-Team,

We all have access to a new web-based program called Xtra Math. I have asked the students to try to login each day and complete the 10 minute daily challenge. Each session is only about 10 minutes and the students can do more than one activity a day. This is great way for me to see how the students are doing and a great way for the students to practice their facts daily. I sent home a flyer with user IDs and the pin numbers yesterday, Wednesday 4/4. Let me know if you need an additional copy.

Thank you for your support of our awesome learners!
