Week of February 11th
There have been a few "bugs" making their way through our classes - a stomach virus and the flu. Please encourage your student to wash their hands any time possible. I have been doing the same. If you can donate tissue, that would be great. Thank you Ms. How for the many donations already! With that said, it is very important make-up work be returned to be graded. If not, your student may receive a failing grade. I do make sure I give students work they missed while absent. Tonight is Pickett Family Night at Bojangles on Hwy 64 from 5:00 to 8:00. If you need dinner, drop on by and let them know your child goes to Pickett. 5th grade will be going to the symphony Thursday. If you have not returned the permission slip, you need to do that as soon as possible. Also remember payment for Fort Caswell is due March 22nd and you can make payments. We will take time to exchange Valentine treats Thursday afternoon. I sent home a class list in Friday folders. This week 5th grade will continue practicing adding, subtracting and multiplying decimals. We will learn to divide decimals next. In science we will be finishing up with cell and moving to body systems. Fourth grade will continue to practice comparing fractions and will be moving into decomposing, adding and subtracting fractions. In science we will finish discussing fossils and move into weathering and erosion.

Week of January 28th
Hopefully we will have a full week this week. The second quarter awards assembly will be Friday, February 1st at 1:15. Report cards were in Friday folders. The spelling bee is coming up soon and both grades have been studying hard for the Geography Bee. Both grades have math homework nightly. They have the usual Daily Word Problem and I have added a daily computation practice. It is very important student do their homework. Fifth grade has the upcoming field trip to the symphony on February 14th. If you haven't returned the permission slip or $5.00, please do as soon as you can. I also put a balance sheet for the Fort Caswell overnight field trip in with report cards. That money is due by March 22nd. You can make small payments if you wish. In math fourth grade will continue with fractions. They will be practicing recognizing and creating equivalent fractions and then on to comparing fractions. In science we hope to make some fossils this week. Fifth grade will be reviewing and practicing adding, subtracting and multiplying fractions this week. In science we hope to finish up genetics this week and moving on to cells. |

Hello Third Quarter
This week is the first week of the third quarter. Report cards should be sent home Friday in Friday folders. Fifth grade will be reviewing multiplying and dividing fractions and then will move into multiplying and dividing decimals. In science we began learning about genetics and inherited traits. If possible, please allow your student to bring a picture of a parent or grandparent when they were young. We are going to compare the picture with the student and see what traits have been passed down. This is always fun and surprising. Fourth grade will begin fractions. We will be learning about fractions the whole third quarter. We will begin with equivalent fractions and comparing fractions. In science fourth grade will be learning about fossils - how they are created and how they are used to study Earth's history.
Fifth grade has a field trip to the Symphony February 14th. There was a permission slip in last week's Friday folder. The cost is $5.00 I will be sending home information about the Fort Caswell Trip soon. I will let everyone know their balance due.
