Fifth Grade Weekly Newsletter #7
October 4, 2010 to October 7, 2010
Hello Fifth Grade Families!
Happy Monday to all of you! I hope you had a great weekend and ready to start the short week. Please note that there is no school this Friday and Monday. I wish you and your family a great four-day weekend!
Please note the following:
- Please cover all textbooks. Some kids still have their books uncovered. Covers protect the books from wear and tear.
- It is really important that students manage their time wisely. If a long-term assignment or project is due on Friday, please do not wait until Thursday night to complete it.
- The students have switched seats and cleaned desk. It would also be a good idea clean backpacks and binder. Please make sure all corrected papers have been reviewed and removed from the STAR binder. Additionally, all old newsletters should also be recycled.
