This is our last week of school. This is our testing week so our schedule will be different than normal. Students will be taking the i-Ready diagnostic test. For this test, students will need to login to our Zoom meeting at specific times (see below) and I will need to monitor them while they take the test. Because this is such a long and important test, I will not have any other assignments this week. Please help your student by creating a “testing environment” that will allow them to focus with minimal distractions. They are allowed to have a pencil and paper, but that is all. They will need to have their mic and camera on the whole time. If you or another adult if able, please help monitor your student so that I know the data is accurate and they aren’t using other resources to answer the questions. Again, the results of this test will help the 4th grade teachers know the best way to help your students in the fall.
As students finish a test, they will not need to attend the corresponding sessions for that specific subject. However, the program does let me know if a student rushed through the test and they will be required to retake it. Please help your student understand the importance of doing their best and taking their time.
Here is the schedule for that day,
please make sure your child is a few minutes early!!! (Click on the image for a better view):
May 22nd: Virtual “Field Day” – This is our last day of school. Students will meet with me on Zoom from 10:00 – 11:00. During this time we will be making ice cream in bags and eating it all together and doing other activities.
Here is the ice cream we will be making.
I highly recommend double bagging the ice cream mixture, and the ice (so you will need two zipper close sandwich baggies and gallon baggies). The recipe link has alternatives if you don’t have the traditional ingredients. Please have your ice cream mixture ready for “shaking” when our Zoom meeting starts at 10:00. We will be shaking and eating the ice cream together!
May 26th – 28th: Drop off and Pick up – Return checked out Chrome books & library books and pick up report cards/materials and yearbooks. More details will be coming from administration about how this will work.
