We hope you all had a fun weekend!! While Saturday turned out to be a bummer weather wise, we hope you were able to enjoy Sunday! We are excited for another busy week of learning in 4th grade. Please check out our reminders and announcement for this week below, along with this week's homework schedule:
Some General Reminders and Announcements:
**STEM Lab Need: Fourth grade students are currently in the process of planning/making AMAZING Rube Goldberg projects in STEM Lab (which you all will see at Spring Showcase!). To bring these masterpieces to life, students need to bring in a white, tri-fold poster board. One poster board is needed for each group. Please consider donating a board to Mrs. Davis so students can begin building these amazing creations. Thank you!
A Note from Student Council: Have any empty or dry markers you don’t need? Instead of throwing them away, donate them back to Crayola for them to be to re-purposed. It’s called Crayola ColorCycle – an amazing program devised to re-purpose used markers rather than sending them to landfills! All around New Prospect Elementary, students and teachers will be collecting used markers that are ready to be discarded. There will be an empty bin located by the lost and found for all your discarded markers. Highlighters and dry erase markers can also be included! Remember, don’t throw out that used marker--ColorCycle it!
Latest Panther Press: Check the latest edition of the Panther Press from Mrs. Lemons!
