We have our Language Arts SAGE test finished with two more to go.  As we are in the last weeks of school, things are getting very busy.  Please make sure you note the upcoming dates listed below.  Also, I asked for parent chaperones for the zoo field trip and received 26 responses!  We will be drawing names to see who can go tomorrow and will email you if we can use your help.  Thank you so much for being so willing to help us out!

We will be having a 4th grade Utah Program.  There are a few items we could use as props and a sign-up genius was made.  If you would like to help out, please go to this link:

You can go onto Sageportal.org to take practice SAGE tests.  Research has shown that the more comfortable a child is with the format, the better they will perform on it.  Your child knows how.

Math: We are finishing up Geometry and will have a test on Friday.  Another geometry vocabulary page will go home with your child tomorrow (Friday).  They will need to know these for the test.
Language Arts: We will be starting Unit 6 week 3 next week and writing informational essays
Science: reviewing for the SAGE test
Homework: read 20 min./night (aloud), spelling, homework page, Reflex math, Pearson, recorders
Donations: hand sanitizer and raffle reward prizes
Have a great week!
