Parents,

Thank you for all of the yummy Valentine treats!!! I am very sorry to send your kids home today with such a “sugar high.”

I just want to remind everyone to take a look at the syllabus’ in your child’s OTA binder.  There are 3. There should be one for Literacy, History (Colonization) and Math (first 3 projects). Each project is explained and due dates and point values are included.   I have broken down the projects in to 3 week segments.  Although the first 3 weeks ends this Thursday (NO SCHOOL FRIDAY OR MONDAY), do not stress if your kids are not done with everything.  Nothing is incomplete until the end of the semester.  I was absent yesterday, and much of today was taken up with science and our Valentines celebration.

Please continue to encourage them to work on “That Quiz.” We are working on percentages, analyzing data, finding averages, and will start geometry next week.

Lastly, next Thursday (February 23), your students will take the  first math test of the semester.  Please review comparing fractions, decimals and percentages (packet 1) and analyzing data and averages (packet 2).

Thank you,

Jill Lehr
