Weekly Update

Cookie Dough Sales
4th and 5th grade students will begin selling cookie dough on Tuesday, September 6th.  The money we receive from the cookie dough sell will pay for our end of the year field trip.  Fourth grade will be going to Mammoth Cave in May.  This one fundraiser will hopefully cover the entire cost of this trip.

Math News:
Students did fairly well on the first vocabulary test for the month of August.  We spent much of our calendar time this past month reviewing the words and their meanings as we talked about those concepts daily.   A new vocabulary list for the month of September will go home next week.  We will incorporate these next vocabulary words during our math instruction time and calendar time just as we did this past month.  We appreciate you taking the time to study and review the words with your child.  Thanks for all you do!
