Week In Review 3/20-3/24

Hey there, Fisher Baker families!

We hope you all had a warm and restful spring break Spring Break. Now that we're back, we're in "go mode" as far as preparing for AZ Merit testing. Today, we sent home an orange flyer about testing dates and details. Here's the text from that flyer:

This Week in Academics:

• We planned, wrote, edited, and typed a 5 paragraph essay to prepare for the writing portion of the AZ Merit.
• We learned geoemtery terms like parallel, perpendicular, ray, point, line, etc.
• We classified quadrilaterals.
• We classified triangles.
• 4th graders built electromagnets.
• 5th graders added and subtracted fractions with unlike denominators

Looking Ahead:

• Due to the 2 hour delay, the symphony field trip was cancelled, but has been rescheduled for Monday, April 17.
• Standardized testing season kicks off with the fourth grade science tests this coming Thursday, 3/30.
• Next Friday is Birthday Friday!

Spring Conferences

Hey there! It's parent teacher conference time again. In the spring, we run things a little differently, making a conference optional for some kids.

As of today your child will either be bringing home:

A.)  (We'd like to meet with you)

• A red sheet of paper with the following link to sign up for a conference on Wednesday or Thursday:
• http://doodle.com/poll/hewkgi7vimurez3k
• No report card yet! You'll get it at your child's conference. 
• We'd like to meet with you about your child's quarter. 

B.) (Optional Conference)

• A blue sheet of paper with the following link to sign up for a conference if you would like to meet with us:
• http://doodle.com/poll/hewkgi7vimurez3k
• Your child's report card

Also, due to conferences this week, there will be no homework.

Ms. Baker
