Math Homework
Students will be back to regular weekly homework this week. We are beginning fractions next week! We have also been discussing how bills become laws in Social Studies class. We implemented a new law starting next week. We would like the students to get on Front Row 1 time per week, for about 30 minutes. If students don’t have internet access at home, they are more than welcome to work on it at home.
ELA Homework
Some students are starting book clubs next week. Any work not finished in class will be homework. It is important that the students stay caught up on all of their book club assignments. You can see their assignments by logging in to their Google Classroom accounts. Thank you for help in making sure your child is successful.
Reading: Read 20 minutes daily
POW: No POW next week!
Achieve 3000: Students are required to pass 2 more activities scoring 75% or higher. Achieve homework must be completed by THURSDAY evenings by 10:00 pm.
Valentine Exchange
On Friday, February 12th we will be exchanging Valentines in our homerooms. If you choose to pass out Valentine's, you must bring one for every child in your homeroom.

Field Trip
The field trip contract was due today. If you did not return, please do so on Monday. We encourage parents to apply sunscreen prior to leaving for our Wilmington field trip. Students cannot bring sunscreen and apply it without a doctor completing the the necessary documentation. If you have questions, please child’s homeroom teacher.
