March Newsletter

Hello, Everyone!
This year is flying by!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just three weeks left until our big week! The STAAR Writing is around the corner. We have been revisiting personal narratives and expository essays, editing like mad people, and writing until our pencil leads are no more! The students are really progressing, and I'm very proud of all their effort and determination.

We just finished our Matter rotation unit in Science and can now devote our Science time to Writing for the next couple of weeks.

This week, we are going to be studying graphing and probability in Math.

Last week, we went around the school with our iPads to identify lines and angles. See one example here:
Our Writing Camp will take place after Spring Break. We will devote the enitre day for the week to Writing activities. It will be an exciting way to get the kids pumped up for the Writing test.

Don't forget - no school next week - March 12th-16th for Spring Break!

Congrats to Dominic for placing alternate in our Academic meet this past month in Ready Writing.
Congrats, also, to Logan and Kara for placing 1st and 2nd at the Science Fair Regionals!
I'm also proud of our DI team! They did great representing us at Regionals a couple of weeks ago outside of Killeen. Thank you, Mrs. Tramp and all of our parents for your support.

Great job, everyone!!!!
