Hi,
STAAR Testing for fourth grade is complete! Yay!!!! We are continuing to work hard and learn a lot. We will have fun, but school is still in session. Thank you for encouraging your child to continue to follow expectations and do his/her best on all assignments.
Reading Celebration with Dr. Flores is on Tuesday morning at 8:00. Our 20 Book Reading Challenge will continue until May 31. Our Monthly goal is to complete the chart of genres for the 20 books. We have a few people who are already there and are continuing to read books of their choice. Keep reading!
Pen Pal/Mentor Visit will be on Tuesday, May 17. Our class will meet with them at about 10:00 in the library. Parents are welcome to come and visit with us. You can continue to write letters or visit your pen pals. Just call The Court at Round Rock at 512-640-5053to set up a visit or send letters to 2700 Sunrise Road, Round Rock, TX 78665.
Donate flip flops for Honduras. The FCE Service Club is asking for donations for flip flops for the people of Honduras. Our very own Susan Shogan, awesome third grade teacher, will be going with Friends of Los Ninos this summer and taking our donated flip flops to the children at Copprome Children's Home and people in the villages of Honduras. Our goal is to collect 300 pairs of flip flops for them. Thank you in advance for your help. See http://www.friendsoflosninos.org/ for more information about the children and people in Honduras.
Texas Heroes Project-We will try to work on the projects at school but have lots of other activities that will take away some of our work time, therefore the projects made need some extra work at home. We will begin presentations on Tuesday, May 31. Have fun and be creative. Practice presentations so that they are dynamic and expressive. Reading to the audience doesn't make the presentation engaging.
We will have a spelling and vocabulary test on Friday. Homework packets will be due, but we are done writing reading response letters for the year. Homework packets will come home on Monday. Continue to turn in reading logs.
