Field Trip News
Our Capitol field trip is scheduled for Friday, February 23, 2018. We will leave from the Fine Arts parking lot and return to FPD by carpool. You are welcome to follow us in cars or meet us at The Varsity for lunch.
In Unit 6 students will:

  • compare different approaches to solving the same problem and decide which strategies are more efficient. 
  • take inventory of known multiplication facts and how they can use them to solve unfamiliar facts. Daily practice of multiplication facts is crucial! Focusing on one fact family each week is a good way to direct practice!
  • model multi-step number stories with one or more equations and represent the unknown quantities with letters.
  • use parenthesis to group and order operations.   
Biography book reports due Tuesday, February 28. class. We will also read another great biography in class in February about the life George Washington Carver.

A Note from Mrs. Putnal
    If your child misses school due to illness, please help us by not sending them back to school until they are fever free and Tylenol free for 24 hours.
    Also, if your child is complaining of headaches, stomach ache, or throat hurting.. please do not give them Tylenol and send them to school. We are finding by lunchtime many of these are running a fever of 100+. Many doctors’  offices are saying that not all with flu run a fever.
    1st-4th may pick up missed work in the Elementary office. Thank you for helping us help all teachers and children stay as healthy as possible.
