I hope everyone had a wonderful and relaxing Spring Break! We are now heading into 4th quarter! I can't believe how quickly this year is flying by!
Announcements:
We have set the dates for three 3rd grade field trips! We will be heading to Clark Planetarium May 6th, Hill AFB May 21st and Hogle Zoo June 4th. We will
need parent chaperons for all of these field trips. If you would like to spend
the day (7:30 am-4:00 pm) with our class, please let me know!
Since it is 4th quarter, all students should be working toward mastering division. If your child is still working on multiplication, please encourage them to study their facts at home. This is also the final quarter to earn AR points for the reading rodeo!
