MAP Testing is almost completed. These are the math and reading tests that students take on the computer. Please encourage your students to do their personal best. This will tell us how much progress they have made since the beginning of the year. We will communicate their results as soon as all have completed testing.
The 6th Annual Mayo Trivia Night is Saturday, January 28! Trivia Night sells out, so act fast! Trivia Night is hosted by the Mayo Foundation. We hope you will get a team of six together to participate in this fun event at the Campbell Hotel!
February 10th at 2:15 will be our Friendship parties with family. On this day we also pass out friendship cards (a.k.aValentines). 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-23 students plus 2 teachers. 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.
From our Einstein Team:

Mrs. Bunch’s Roots math class came home with the unit they just finished. Not all the pages are completed due to lack of time. We encourage you to work on some of the pages with your child for extra practice. No need to return any of the work.
Shoots Math: Place Value up to 1000
Even though we are not sending homework regularly, students should be reading a minimum of 20 minutes each and practicing their addition and subtraction math facts.
This newsletter was also sent in email form. If you did not receive it, please let your child’s homebase teacher know so that we may add you to our distribution list.
