The final countdown….

...believe it or not there are just 2 short weeks of 4th grade left!
They will be 2 very busy weeks so here are some reminders and important info.

~no school Monday 5/25 for Memorial Day~

EOG’s will begin WEDNESDAY 5/27 with the reading test. Please make sure your child is on time, well rested, and has a good breakfast each day. We will eat lunch much later than normal and will not have a snack time. We will take the math test on THURSDAY 5/28.

We will celebrate the end of the EOG’s and our economics unit with a grade level ‘market day’ on Friday 5/29. Students have come up with an idea for a business to provide a good or service to their classmates in exchange for money they’ve earned for classroom jobs and good behavior. We will work on their products to sell after testing, there will be NO HOMEWORK next week so they may also work on their businesses then.

On Tuesday 6/2 we will have field day. Please make sure your child brings a water bottle and towel, and wears clothes and shoes appropriate for being outside most of the day. Also, I suggest applying sunscreen before coming to school.

We are working as a class to earn paper clips for good behavior. If our chain of paper clips makes it to the floor in time, we will have extra recess and possibly reading and lunch time outside on Wednesday. June 3rd.

Our second semester awards assembly will be held on Thursday, June 4th at 10:00 in the gym.

Our last day will be Friday, June 5th and we will dismiss at 11:20 that day. Report cards will go home the last day and should contain the EOG score report.

**If you have plastic grocery bags just taking up space at your house, our kids offering locker and desk clean out services as their business would love to have them.

Please email me if you have any questions :)
