Here’s What’s Happening in 5th Grade January 17, 2018
Events Coming Up:
We hope you can take advantage of the Cedar North Community Education classes offered by our district. These are held at North Elementary School. These include art studio classes, geology, and chess clubs. Your child can get math tutoring there as well (MTTh at 3:30-5:30, and W at 1:30-3:30).
Our school Spelling Bee will be held February 13 (class tests will be given tomorrow, and two students from each class will be selected). Winners on the school level will compete in the Region. Our school Talent Show auditions will be held March 14. If your child is interested, s/he can start preparing for that.
You should have received an email concerning the Chemistry Competition. The test has been administered to our students, and a South Elementary team will be formed. This team of 4-6 students will compete at SUU Monday, March 12. Tomorrow (Thursday 18th) the Code Changers will visit our 5th grades. We are always thrilled to participate in STEM activities. Ask your child about this.
DARE essays (information essays; typed) are due on Friday, January 19, so they will be ready at our next DARE class.  Students have all the information they need, but they will need to complete this at home. If they don’t have access to a computer, they can come to school early or stay in for break.
SEP Conferences are coming up the first week of February. Look for an SEP schedule coming home today with your child’s progress report. If you need to make a change, feel free to write your child’s name in a blank spot on the form or send an e-mail, so we can change the time. We’re looking forward to discussing your child’s progress during February 5-9.
You can look for the next progress report to come home on January 31.
As always, we appreciate your continued support in our efforts to help your child succeed in school. We value your insights and concerns as we work together in this important effort.
