Auvigne's 4th Grade Update
Friday, May 2, 2014
Celebrating 10 years...
Honoring the Past, Celebrating the Present,
Looking to the Future
FYI
-
Good Afternoon,
You child's individual pictures came home this week. You may choose to purchase any portion of the package, and return whatever portion you do not wish to purchase. We would like to collect all payments and/or returned packages by Friday, May 16th.
Speaking of pictures...the class pictures should be arriving next week.
Tuesday, May 6th is an early dismissal day. We will dismiss at 2:00pm.
Tuesday is also a PTO Eat-N-Earn night at Twisters.
We are having our Math Topic 11 Assessment on Tuesday, May 6th. The "Daily Common Core Practice" packet and the "Quick Check" packet were sent home today. Your child may do any of the activities on the enVision website to help them study/practice as well. There is a practice test in the text book that may be completed to practice, and this can be accessed through the enVision website as well.
Now that we have finished our Kansas State testing, it is about time to start our Spring MAP testing. We will be taking our Reading MAP test on Wednesday, May 7th at 12:20pm and our Math MAP test on Tuesday, May 13th at 12:20pm.
We will be heading to the Wilderness Science Center on Monday, May 19th to make up our rain out date in October. We need 5 parent helpers to join us, please e-mail me if you would like to attend! We will be leaving at 8:40am and returning at 2:20pm.
Thank you so much to the PTO Take Stock program for funding our trip to the Kauffman Center for Performing Arts. The students had a great time!
We want to express our appreciation for your prompt completion of the 2014-2015 on-line registration process as this helps with staff planning for next year. If you have any questions, please contact the office.
Thank you so much for your support of the Book Fair this week.
If your child is interested in performing in the talent show, forms are available on the CHE webpage under eDocuments or from the office.
Be sure to check the Upcoming Events section below to see a full listing of activities.
Also be sure to check the May events in the CHE E-Update.
Have a great week!
Worth Repeating...
As we get closer to the end of the school year and excitement builds, we seem to be struggling a bit more with self-control and following directions. Many routines and directions we have had in place since August are being forgotten. Any discussions you can have at home with your child as reminders would be appreciated. Thank you.
