GA Milestones:
Milestones continue next week! Please see the schedule above and ensure your child gets a good nights sleep and arrives before 7:40am on testing days. If they are not feeling well, please do not send them to school and they can make up the test on another day!
While we have been talking with the students about the assessment, we want to reinforce that this assessment helps to play a role in them passing 3rd and 5th grade. We want ALL students to do their very best and feel encouraged and supported by both the school and their families. Please help to reinforce that they have learned so much this year and this is their chance to show how much they have grown and should be proud of their hard work!
What are we focusing on this upcoming week?
Reading & Writing: Next week, students will be starting an end of the year reading and writing project to showcase all that they have learned and show how they have grown as a reader and writer. They will choose a chapter book of their choice and complete notes about the characters, setting, story events on a story mountain, chapter summaries, and theme. Then they will work on a writing piece related to their book. They will choose to write an informational, opinion, or narrative response.
Math: Next week we will review standards on Monday to prepare for Milestones, take GA Milestones, and then complete the iReady Math diagnostic.

4.2 (Ms. Smith): Next week in advanced math...
We will continue reviewing for Milestones on Monday. Students will be taking the Milestones math portions on Tuesday and Wednesday, so we will not be teaching math on those days.
On Thursday, we pick back up with our final math unit. We will dig into the last standard of the unit- division of fractions (NF.7). Students will learn to divide whole numbers by fractions and fractions by whole numbers.
We will put one last pause on our learning on Friday for our final iReady math diagnostic of the year!
