4-10-13 Daily Update

Parents,

We are working on fractions in Math class right now.  Students are doing very well with this.  Students who have picked up on the concepts quickly have been teaching other students how to solve the problems.  It is nice to see how well they work together to help each other!

OAA family Night.  The 3rd and 4th grade teachers are hosting an OAA Family night tomorrow at 6:00.  We will meet first in the gymnasium with a short introduction and then students will complete some OAA scavenger hunt questions throughout the building.  At the conclusion, families will be invited to enjoy some cookies and drinks.  Its not too late to come.  We'd love to see everyone there!

Powerhouse 5K.  The Powerhouse 5K is just around the corner.  I'd love to see lots of my students and their families there.  You can run or walk.  The weather is supposed to be good for the event Saturday.

Grade cards envelopes.  These are still needed from: Andy
