Career Fair News:


Dear Parents,

We are putting the final touches on our career projects and getting ready for our Career Fair this week.  Everyone worked extremely hard on their creative technology projects, and we can’t wait to see their final products!    

On Thursday, February 21st and Friday, February 22nd the 5th graders will be participating in the first annual Career Fair.  The Career Fair will be like an open house for all the other 5th grade students and staff to come and view their technology piece which tells all about the research they completed to learn more about their future careers. 

On the day your child’s homeroom class is presenting they will need to do their very best to dress up like someone that has their desired career.  Students also may bring in props to further explain their job roles and responsibilities if they want to.  With that being said, please keep in mind if your son or daughter is a police officer or any career that requires them to carry a weapon of any kind they will NOT be able to bring in a toy version of any type of weapon. 

See below for the attached schedule for which classes are presenting when.  Thank you for your support!

Sincerely,

The 5th Grade Team

Thursday, February 21st – Miss Bonder & Mrs. Lapham

Friday, February 22nd – Mrs. Potempa & Mrs. Sutton

  3. I just got home from RE and I just realized I forgot the POW at school, what should I do?

  4. AD - You can come in before school to work on it or you can do it at lunch or you can turn it in late (which is my least favorite option). The goal is that you and your partner will switch the problem back to each other tomorrow for grading over the weekend.
    Are you able to get to school early? Is it a chorus day? I am there early; you can work in the classroom if you can get to school.

  5. There is no chorus, so I will probably go in early, but what time should I get to school?

  6. AD - I am there very early (6:45). I think you should think about how long it will take you to solve the problem and think backwards from 8:30. Or - you can have your parents run you over early and take it home to finish it, if that works better for your family.

  8. GP - This is yesterday's homework assignment. Since I was not at school this afternoon, I didnot get one posted for today.
    Your Language Arts homework is to complete the Point of View writing that we started in class. It is about the story Thank You Ma'am from your literacy packet.
    Thanks for checking.
