Weeks 30 & 31

Students had a fantastic time on Science Day last Friday. They explored the Grand Canyon, milked a cow, and learned plenty of other cool things. If you see Mrs. Jezisek around campus, tell her how much your kiddos enjoyed the day. She coordinated all of the volunteers and guest speakers, and we wouldn't have had such a great day without her.

Hopefully now that STAAR is over, any anxiety your child might have felt over the tests have faded. With that hurdle cleared, it is important to remember that there are still six more weeks of school and the year isn't over yet!

After the science quiz on Tuesday, we will shift into Adaptations, which is a pretty quick unit. The quiz on the material is probably going to be the middle of next week. For social studies, the class will have a very special guest present at an assembly this Friday. In writing, we are continuing to study sentence structure as we wind down poetry styles and explore fairy tales.
