As we near the end of the year, things start to become really busy in 5th grade. Please make sure you are checking Friday Folders, emails, and the blog to ensure you are informed! Below are a few important reminders:
MAP Testing
MAP testing will begin Tuesday, April 18 and go until Wednesday, April 26. We have a school-wide schedule that spreads out the different sessions to give students a break between sessions. Please make sure that your student gets plenty of sleep and eats breakfast during this week. If you would be willing to donate a bag of hard candy to share with the class that week, please let me know.
Baby Pictures!!
Don't forget to send in/email a baby picture of your child! We are using these pictures for a special slideshow at 5th grade graduation. The pictures should be given to me no later than Friday, April 21st!
5th Grade Graduation
The date for 5th grade graduation has been set for Wednesday, May 24th. Please look in your child's Friday Folder for more information on this important event.
Literary Scholar Award
Many students have been working throughout the year to earn the Literary Scholar Award. To earn this award at graduation, students must have read and turned in reports for at least 10 books throughout the year. Of these 10 books, students should have read at least 5 different genres. This is something we have talked about frequently throughout the year. If your child is working to earn this honor, please remind them that all book reports need to be turned in to me by Friday, April 28th.
