Week of March 2nd

Notes/Reminders:
* The last day of the 2nd trimester is March 6th. All old work from the 2nd trimester must be turned in by Thursday, March 5th. Students have till Friday the 6th to complete their AR quizzes and any current work. Report Cards will be sent home the following Friday.  

* PVUSD board meetings this week are Wednesday (7pm at Ann Soldo) and Thursday (5pm at Aptos High). Come show your support for teachers, schools, librarians, school nurses, etc. 

Please practice the multiplication facts with your child every day! There is a link to printable flashcards in the Student Links section. 

* Please check your homes for Social Studies and Science textbooks! We began the year with one for every child, and we are now missing a few. We need all the textbooks in the classroom for daily use. 

This week we will...
...take the state-wide fourth-grade writing assessment Tuesday. Please send your child to class on time, well-fed, and well-rested. 

...wrap up negative numbers with a math test Wednesday. Then we'll be diving into everyone's favorite...  fractions! 

...hopefully complete our reading of By the Great Horn Spoon!  Our goal is to complete the book by Thursday so that everyone has a chance to take the AR test before the end of the trimester. The book is worth 6 points! Students who have already reached their AR goal can "save" the quiz till next trimester if they wish. 

...start our weekly classes of ceramics (through the SPECTRA program) - Thursday mornings from 7:55 - 8:55. Please make sure students are in class on-time!
