Mammoth Cave 
We have booked the Mammoth Cave trip for May 16th. Parents are welcome to go with us. We just ask that parents drive because they will be no extra room on the bus. The cost for parents will be $12.00. We will cover the cost for students. There will be more information sent home later for parents wanting to go. 

Subject Areas
Science: Please remember to study for your   vocabulary quiz every Friday!
Math: Please continue to check math homework nightly.  Many students' scores have dropped some due to careless mistakes. Math vocabulary words were sent home in Friday folders today.  We will have our next math vocabulary test on Wednesday, Feb. 23rd.  Please continue to practice these words with your child.
The students have also been shown some websites that they can go to for extra practice on math concepts.  If your child chooses to get on a website for at least 20 minutes, let me know the "Name of the Website Game" and how long he/she played, and I can reward some bonus points.  Thank you for helping your child improve and succeed.
Reading: EXTRA CREDIT PROJECT: Students have just finished reading either “A Taste of Blackberries” or “On My Honor.”  For extra credit Students can read the other book and create either a PowerPoint presentation or a book report comparing and contrasting the two books.  Projects will be due on MARCH 4th.
