May Newsletter

It is hard to believe how quickly the year has gone by! I have truly enjoyed watching your child learn and grow throughout the school year, and it’s not over yet! There are still many activities and events planned for May. The Reptile Guy will present on May 8th and our Multicultural Night is on May 15th. Please make sure you stop by to see the incredible activities your child has been working on. A huge congratulations goes out to all the third grade students who mastered their multiplication facts during our multiplication sundae challenge! Way to go! We would also like to applaud all third graders for their dedication and hard work during the AIMS testing last month! Everyone did a fantastic job! Please remind your child to continue completing his/her reading and math homework at night. Your child will have homework until the last week of school. It has been a pleasure to work with you and your child this school year. Have a safe and wonderful summer break!
 
 

 

Jupiter Grades

Please check Jupiter Grades for missing assignments.  I am sending home hard copies for those students who have missing work.  Please be sure all assignments are turned in as soon as possible. 

AR Quarter 4

Reminder!!!!!


We are halfway through quarter four, which means your child should be halfway to their AR goal.  Please login to Accelerated Reader to check your child's progress.  Please note that point goal and test average are calculated into your child's final report card.


Thanks for staying updated on your child's academics!

AIMS Week (April 16th-20th)

During AIMS week there will be no story, spelling list, or math homework.  Instead, please have your child get a good night's sleep, eat a nutritious breakfast, and come to school on time.  Please avoid any unnecessary absences as attendance is crucial during the week of AIMS Testing.   

Wish us well!

Thanks for support!

Dojo

Hello,
Our class is excited about a new program we'll be implementing.  It's called Dojo.  Dojo is a powerful class management tool that is entirely electronic.  Student earn or lose points based on specific classroom behaviors and they get to choose their own avatars.  In lieu of Character Cards, I'll be emailing behavior reports weekly.  No more signing Character Cards!  I hope you enjoy this new program.  I know that the students love it. 

Check it out!
