AnnouncementsSurvey: Potential UAF Bike Field Trip
Kids Voting Sticker Contest SLED Live Homework Help Kids Summer Camps How to Access i-Ready and AR MAP Testing Tools The students did a fantastic job on their AK STAR state tests. I’m very proud of them. Thank you, parents and guardians, for ensuring that your children were well-prepared for testing. A special note of gratitude for all the parents who donated snacks to the class. With the conclusion of testing, we will resume our regular routine (e.g. spelling quizzes and reading groups). Spring concerts will be held on Thursday (intermediate) and April 25th (primary) at 2 PM in the gym. Please complete a brief survey regarding a potential bike field trip to UAF on May 8th. Thank you. The students are invited to participate in the annual “I Voted” sticker contest. Please see the attached handouts. The entry deadline is Friday, April 26th. Please submit it to me by April 19th, if you would like for me to submit it for you. Visit kidsvotingnorthalaska.org for more information. Yearbook order forms were sent home on Friday, April 5th. Yearbooks cost $10. Orders are due April 29th. If your child still hasn’t memorized all the multiplication facts, please help him or her study every day. We are using multiplication daily in math and the handful of kids who don’t know their facts are really struggling. Please be informed of how the persistent lack of funding for education is impacting our district. We are looking at increasing all class sizes by five students next year (30 elementary students per class), closing multiple schools, and making massive cuts across the district. Please contact your legislators and the governor to advocate for education. Thank you. Please encourage your child to complete one i-Ready lesson every school day. The lessons are personalized, based on your child’s current needs. You must use Google Chrome to access the district’s applications. Math tutorial is available every Thursday, before school, 8:30 to 9:15 AM. Parents are always welcome to bring home any of their children’s school materials (e.g. writing journals and spelling quizzes) to review and help their children correct their assignments for extra credit. Please ensure that your child knows how to tie his or her shoes and has P.E. inside shoes at school. Click here for our class book club page.
