Here’s the latest news:
- Tolt Transition – This coming Tuesday, Counselors from Tolt will be coming into our classroom to talk with students about middle school and the opportunities available to them as they go into 6th grade. On Wednesday, March 23rd, there is a 5th grade parent information night at Tolt from 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm.
- Class pictures are on March 20th.
- STEAM Night and Science Fair Project information went home on Thursday. A project is required for 5th graders. Student outlines for their projects (back page of the packet) are due on Friday, 3/23, with a parent signature. The actual projects are due in the classroom the morning of Wednesday, April 18th. I have given the general information, an example and the planning outline to students. There will not be time to work on these projects in class. I will review all the outlines and am happy to answer any questions that you or your child may have.
- Field Trip – We will be going to the UW Engineering Fair on Thursday, April 19th. Information went home this week and I’ve received it back from some students already. There is still room for a few chaperones, so if you’re interested, get your form in soon.
- Supplies – Believe it or not, we are running out of tissues. (There have been a lot of colds going around!) If you can send in a box or two to help get us through to the end of the year, that would be great. Also, if your student doesn’t have headphones or earbuds at school, please send them in. They were on the supply list at the beginning of the year. We are doing projects on computers where it would help for everyone to have headphones, plus we will need them for upcoming testing starting at the end of April.
