Picture Day is Tomorrow

Tomorrow the fourth and fifth graders have a mid-chapter quiz in math.  Please review with them at home.  Check their homework sheet that has their math assignments for the whole week.

In science we continued to talk about the body systems and we watched a video on diabetes.  We will continue to talk about how to keep our bodies healthy with good diets and exercise.

In Language Arts we are learning about nouns.  We are also having fun in writer's workshop with some very creative stories.  Ask your child to tell you about the story they wrote today.

This week we will be finishing up the Reading Plus benchmark test.  Next week we will begin our weekly assignments.  Please log in to see how your child is doing on the test.  Here is a great video from Clark Howard promoting Reading Plus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aq7w6fbqyKA  DAS is proud to be able to offer this program to your child.

Remember that tomorrow is picture day.  Bring in your order form for pictures if you will be purchasing them.  You can also order them online.  All students have to come to school in uniform.  

Reminder that Thursday night is DAS Family Night at the Daytona Cubs.  Please buy your tickets in the office.

Our quote for today is from Thomas Paine, "Give to every other human being every right that you claim for yourself.”
