HELP-Classroom Items Needed


We are in desperate need of snacks! 
If you could donate healthy snacks to our classroom it would be greatly appreciated!

Field Trip


Friday, March 9, 2012
The fourth graders will be going to the Charles H. Wright Museum as a cultivating experience for our study on slavery! The cost of the trip is $5.50. Please submit payment, along with the permission slip as soon as possible. 



Brag Board-March


The brag board will be changing for the month of March. Please fill out the shamrock with the sentence starter,

Luck had NOTHING to do with (Child’s name) accomplishing, achieving, or overcoming…

I want you to highlight something GREAT that your child has achieved, accomplished, or overcame.

For example:  
  • ·      Luck had NOTHING to do with Jason achieving a 100% on his math test. It was due to his hard work and studying!
  • ·      Luck had NOTHING to do with Jason overcoming his fear of snakes. It was through his determination and bravery that he was able to put one around his next at camp.

To conclude our studies of slavery, Juneteenth, and Kwanza, the 4th graders will be performing and featuring the work that we've done all month.

Black History Month QUIZ


Mrs. Johnson created a 3rd-5th grade take-home Black History Month quiz contest. The quiz was sent home last Friday.

Students are to work as independently as possible. Have them do a Google search for the key words in the questions.

The quiz is due back by March 27th. It is not a requirement, but I encourage you to have your child attempt to do it to practice web-searching skills and to learn more about Black History.

All completed test should be turned into the office!
