Dear Armstrong Families,
I apologize for the late letter. We have a couple notes to share. I do hope everyone enjoyed the Pancake Breakfast.
February 10th at 2:15 will be our Friendship parties with family. On this day we also pass out friendship cards (a.k.a Valentines). Please help your child prepare 2 sets of cards. One set is to give to family members-16 plus family teacher. The other set is for the homebase group-30 students plus 1 teacher. Please put the cards in a bag labeled with your child’s name and with the label “homebase” or “family.” Please do not address the cards to specific children. Please start this job soon! It takes a while to write your name so many times! It is fine to attach a piece of candy or a sticker to the cards if you would like. Please be mindful that some children have peanut allergies and avoid candy with nuts.
No school Friday, February 3, 2017, due to Professional Development.
Armstrong Math Update:
While we are still encouraging students to use their Prodigy accounts at home for extra math practice, we are starting a new math program at school that aligns better with our curriculum and provides more in-depth practice and lessons. The program is called Zearn and just like Prodigy, students are able to log in at home as well! This program allows students to move at their own pace throughout the lessons while allowing their teachers to monitor their progress as they go. The students have received their login information in their math classes, as well as a parent letter with this information. This letter, if it has not come home already, should be coming home with your child today or tomorrow. Please let Mrs. Smith or Ms. Tandy know if you have any questions.
FIFTH GRADE DESTINATION ANNOUNCEMENT:
It has been voted on and decided that the Fifth Grade Trip will be to Dallas Fort Worth, Texas.
OTHER IMPORTANT ARMSTRONG INFORMATION:
- Armstrong Enrichment Classes – During the 2nd quarter, we had time set aside for fun enrichment classes that involved learning beyond the required curriculum. We will be postponing the startup of these classes until the February as we have several Monday’s during January that not all of the staff will be here and able to facilitate with these classes.
OTHER DATES TO REMEMBER:
Please email your child’s homebase teacher if you have any questions or concerns!
