Dear Parents,
This is a reminder that this Monday, March 14th, ALL stuents will be taking their ELA Module 3B (or for 2nd Domain 4) Test. A test covers the content for the whole module or domain and therefore is longer and is worth more points than a quiz! Students should study the ELA notes in their notebook and especially the three corrected quizzes I sent home since they show what skills were covered in phonics, grammar, vocabulary, and writing based on the readings we did in class. On Monday, I will be sending home a permission slip for a trip this Tuesday, March 15th for THIRD graders, to Mother Cabrini Shrine which is located in Inwood near our school. It is VERY IMPORTANT that all third graders bring back the permission slip signed by Tuesday morning OR they cannot be permitted to go.It is also important that all STUDENTS BE IN FULL SCHOOL UNIFORM FOR THIS TRIP! I will also be sending home THREE corrected Religion quizzes for ALL 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders to review well for the Religion Unit Test which is scheduled for Wednesday.Parents, please sign all quizzes that are sent home -a total of six- and return them all no later than Wednesday.
On Thursday, we will be packing up and storing all books away for Easter vacation so please send in sturdy plastic bags and let students know what you want them to take home for vacation to study. I will be sending home a "writing assignment" for all classes which I will be reviewing with students on the Monday AFTER vacation. Please be aware that the ELA State Test for 3rd and 4th grades are scheduled to begin on that same Tuesday, April 5 and lasts for three days. It includes bith reading and several writing assignments based on giving text evidence on what they have read.
We will be having a pizza party on Friday afternoon so I am asking each student to bring in $3.00 by Wednesday so I can order. Students may bring in their juice and snack.
I will be posting additional information in the coming week to help your students meet these challenges but it is up to the students themselves to complete the assignments and put forth the effort needed to get the good grades they want! Please keep checking the blog regularly! Thanks.
