Our class and Ms. DiPesa's class worked together to compile 100 light bulbs full off the fun and interesting things we have learned this year in ALL of our school subjects! We were so lucky to have such a fabulous visit to the Wheelock Family Theater on Wednesday to see Mary Poppins! We all really enjoyed the performance! Be sure to ask your student what his or her favorite song/dance was! Your students have been working on two assessments this week! We finished up Topic 8 on equivalent fractions and comparing fractions. After that, I began to administer the Benchmark Assessment for topics 1-8. It will be so great to see all the math progress they have made so far this year! The results will be shared with you at conferences then sent home once the report card process is completed. Our next topic is all about adding and subtracting fractions and mixed numbers! This sets a very important foundation moving forward so please be sure to continually check in on your students at home! Remember to keep checking out our Pro-Bot blog!

Please be sure to look over your students test, sign, and return. I want to draw your attention to the scoring sheet. Please note that although many of your students exhibited "Mastery" in the standard that was addressed there were many careless errors and not following directions. It may be worthwhile to review these further with your students. PARCC Testing DatesPlease see today's yellow notice coming home with your students regarding the upcoming PARCC testing and dates.
