I  hope everyone is enjoying this balmy weather!  Tomorrow we begin our last full week before the Winter Break.

This week’s spelling words focus on the words with an /al/ as a prefix or suffix:

neutral, fatal, numeral, although, almonds

The content words are Social Studies words:

executive branch, legislative branch, judicial branch, separate, balance.

Tomorrow we will have a short assembly about PBIS in the gym at 9:00.  We also have Art and Math Enrichment.

Please don’t forget to have your child practicing their multiplication facts.  We will begin focusing on fractions in Unit 7 in math and they will need to know how to change improper fractions to mixed numbers.  This will require knowledge of multiplication facts.  More than half the class is still struggling with memorizing their multiplication facts.  Please make it a priority for your child each and every day!

Our March 5th field trip is going to be here before you know it.  If you haven’t already done so, please sign your child’s permission slip and return it to me with the admission fee by Friday, February 13th.

Thank you to all of the parents who already volunteered for the field trip!  If you have not been on a field trip with your child in the last 2 years, please stop by the office to sign a document allowing a background check.  The office requires this before any parent can attend a field trip.  The process only takes about 5 minutes.

Have a great rest of your weekend!
