Dear Parents,
Today the students completed their final District Writing Test. They were allowed 90 minutes maximum, and several students used every minute. They had to write a persuasive essay about convincing their parents (YOU) to do something they wanted. I haven't had time to read them yet, but I'm looking forward to it. :-)
Tomorrow all library books must be returned. Today I received a list of overdue books with a note that too many students had overdue books this week.
We still need drivers for the Friday, May 28th beach trip. If you are able to drive/chaperone, please let me know TOMORROW. Thank you.
The only homework the students had today was to work on their ABC State Report and to read their AR book.
Tomorrow the students will have time in the afternoon to work on their ABC books in class. The computers were down today, so we didn't go to the computer lab. On our end of the campus we teachers couldn't even check mail for messages from parents.
Yesterday and today I sent home Progress Reports that reflect the students work the last two weeks. It only includes work completed in math and English/Language Arts. I don't have any AR scores or science grades. If you look over the Progress Reports, you'll notice that much of the work I have been doing with the class has been reviewing the major areas of curricula taught in fifth grade.
That's it for today. Have a good evening!
Sincerely,
Ruth Landmann
