The Badger Exams went very well. The students worked really hard!
Tuesday, April 28 is Opera for the Young so remind your child to wear their best clothes or as one of the characters from the opera Beauty and the Beast.
In math, we will be taking the pretest for Unit 7 on Monday, and taking the post test for Unit 6 on Thursday. Please help your child review for the Unit 6 post test on area and perimeter. I will remind students to take their math books home every night.
Just a reminder that Friday, May 1 is the deadline to order the Summer Math Skills Sharpener Book.

I am so proud of the improvements that the students had on their 5 minute timings this week! Keep up the hard work!!!
We are starting the Badger Exam today (Monday, April 20). Please make sure your child has a good breakfast, is well rested and ready to work hard. A healthy snack would also be great, because we will be going to lunch 15 minutes later on Monday and Thursday.
Tuesday is Spring Road Spirit Wear or Red and White day.
Wednesday is Earth Day so students are encouraged to wear colors like blue, green, brown, or anything that would reflect Earth, such as a T-shirt with Earth on it.
Also next Monday (Apr. 27) ends the Timber Rattler Reading Incentive. As of Friday, April 17, eleven students had completed reading the 800 minutes required to earn a free ticket!

We will be doing some practice for the Badger Exam this week. Again, please check with your child to see if they need new headphones. It is really important that they can hear the parts of the test and directions that are given orally.
If your child is still on subtraction or multiplication in Rocket Math, they will have a page of facts to practice Monday-Thursday. This needs to be done each night and handed in the next day. If it is not done, they will stay in at recess to get it done. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call or email me.
We will have a practice tornado drill on Wednesday.

Can you believe we are in the fourth quarter and we only have 43 days left of school? (Not that I'm counting!)
The Badger Test will be the week of April 20. Please ask your chid if he or she needs new headphones. The Badger Test is done on the computer/laptop and it is important that they can hear directions given. You can send some from home or send $4 to purchase them here.
