Practice Makes Perfect

Tonight the students will be able to display their artistic talents in art and gymnastics.  We have been practicing every day for weeks.  They have been doing a great job and I can't wait for them to make their debut tonight!!!

Please make a note on your calendar that this Friday our John Knox Nursing Home performance was cancelled due to sickness at the facility.  

Please make sure that your child is working on their Social Studies research project.  It is due one week from today.

The 5th graders were assigned a portion of their reading test today.  It is a mapping of the events in their literature book.  It will be due on Monday.  The questions and answers portion of their test will be this Friday.

In two weeks the students will be graded on their math facts and on their states (and capitals).  Another good website to study at is http://lizardpoint.com/geography/usa-quiz.php.  A good website to practice multiplication math facts is at: http://www.multiplication.com/games/all-games.

Our quote for today is from Democritus, “Happiness resides not in possessions and not in gold; the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul.”
