Back to School Information

Hey there!!!

The days are summer are coming to an end. Only 8 more days and we shall meet again. Just wanted to give you a heads up on all the new and exciting things I have planned for the school year.

First, Science Fair. All students 4th - 6th grade will bwe participating in Science Fair this year. We will begin thinking about our procjects in early September. Parents, please encourage your child to start thinking about what type of project they would like to do. Students will be doing ALL of the experimenting at home. We will be doing ALL of the research, writing and assembling at school. Science Fair Boards will need to be purchased by the end of November or early December.

Next, we will be doing a Discovery Lab in Science class twice a month. This is a chance for your child to discover something new and find out the why behind it. Please look for this notebook to come home and see what your child has discovered....IT WILL BE AMAZING!!!

Sixth Grade updates:
I have done away with assignment books however, I will be keeping track of homework folders daily. Students are required to have this signed nightly by you, the parents. I use this tool to let parents know what is going on in their son or daughters academic career. I also use this to help students to be organized...especially for junior high school. It is required to be filled out daily and signed nightly. Please help your child to remember to bring this folder back to school everyday.

I would also like to welcome our two new students: Camille Brandt and Angel Nadeau. We are looking forward to having you in our class!!!!

Have a great day!
Mrs. Burton
