Good Afternoon!
We hope everyone had a restful, but very snowy, weekend! We are getting down to the final few days before break! This is going to be a busy week and our schedules will be slightly different but with our 4th graders super great focus and great behavior it should run smoothly :) This week would be a great week to make sure a water bottle and snack are packed each day!
Remember our Christmas Concert is this week. Thursday we will have two performances on during the school day and one at night.
We will have school next week on Monday (full day) and Tuesday (dismissal at noon).
This week in...

5th SS: Native American Research Projects start this week. The students will be able to pick any Native American tribe of their choosing that can be found in the United States. Information will be going home today. There are three parts to the project: 1. Outline 2. Menu Item and 3. Artifact. They will be presenting these in class during the week of January 23rd. Time will also be given after break to work on the project. Students should be going to the library to check out books for their research, we will have computers available but not enough for everyone so books would be the second option!
