Auvigne's 4th Grade Update
Friday, November 30, 2012
Learners Today, Leaders Tomorrow,
Cheetah Champions Forever...
FYI
-
Good Afternoon,
I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving break! We have had a productive week back.
We will be having a Social Studies test on Wednesday, December 5th over our Native Americans unit. A study guide will be coming home on Monday. As with our previous Social Studies test, an online tutorial can be found at the following address:
http://www.tutorial.historyalive.com/
PTO Eat N Earn night at Noodles & Company on Tuesday, December 4th.
Has your child talked to you about how much they like cup-stacking? Cup-stacking is a great brain-based activity that helps with fine motor skills and promotes ambidexterity. To purchase cups, go to www.speedstacks.com and click "shop" and "group order store." Follow the steps and use a credit card to purchase (no shipping costs!). 10% of the money spent in the group order will go to Coach Miller to purchase more cup-stacking equipment for P.E. They make great holiday gifts! All items will be sent to Coach Miller for you to pick up before the holiday break. The group closes on December 3rd. You can also find out more information on Coach Miller's website at www.bluevalleyk12.org/CHE/armiller .
Worth Repeating:
We are starting a walk/run club to promote fitness and community in our school. This started on Wednesday, October 3rd, from 3:50-4:45. Individual students and/or families are invited to participate each Wednesday. We will meet outside on the kickball field and use the fitness track to walk/run with friends and family. There are permission slips available in the office or you can print one from our website under forms and documents. Please return the form to Coach Miller.
Study Den, the after school study club began on Thursday, September 20th for grades 1-5. This is an opportunity for students to receive assistance on school work, prepare for tests, or work on Study Island. We have now added an additional day, Mondays!
Our strings days and times are Mondays at 2:50 PM and on Wednesdays at 11:20 AM. If your child is involved in this program, they will not be missing out on instructional time :)
LEAD 21: Mr. Marsh is going to be adding a new feature in the parent E-Update regarding LEAD 21. For the next several months, a special highlight of the program will be provided to parents. This week the feature is the LEAD 21 web page. Make sure to check it out!
There are no upcoming events to display.
