STEAM Expo 2015!

STEAM Expo 2015 is fast approaching! On this day the school is overrun with activities and demonstrations of various STEAM related fields. It's such a blast and the students learn a lot! However, to make this day happen, we need YOU! It's super easy to monitor one of the activity rooms. All of the materials and instructions will be there. The activities are meant to be student centered, so all you'll need to do is provide a little guidance if anyone is really stuck. It's an easy and fun way to show your love for Pinebrook! Please sign up using the sign-up genius link below. Hope to see you there!

End of the Quarter!

The third quarter is wrapping up already! 

Habitats test: Friday
My class' graphing test: Friday

If your student will be out any days this week (particularly Thursday and Friday), please let me and their math teacher know ASAP so we can make arrangements for assignments to be finished for report cards.

An optional work packet will be sent home over spring break. With SOLs fast approaching, this practice is crucial to maintaining skills over a long break. Also, don't forget about websites that are also helpful and a little more fun! Thanks for your help!

Mali Test Change: IMPORTANT

Good morning parents!

    Driving to school this morning I had the startling realization that we could be out the rest of the week for snow! The poor kids have been working on Mali on and off for a while now. So, instead of having the test potentially moved to next Monday or Tuesday, I decided to have a good review this morning and take the test today. Because of the late notice, any student that doesn't get a satisfactory grade will have the chance to retake it. I will be letting you know as soon as I have your student's score, and I will be asking parents to let me know if they want a retake. I will be sending this information home with the score as well. I hope this relieves stress rather than creates it. Please let me know if you have any questions!

   Additionally, I am sending some extra math and reading work home with your student. This is to be done by Monday if there is no school Thursday and Friday. If there is only no school on Thursday, they should complete about half of the work and bring it back to school on Friday. This is meant as snow day work, not weekend work.

Thanks so much for your support with these crazy days!
