Reminders

Scholastic Books for Nauman's homeroom 

I recently placed the order for January. If you placed an order online, it will be arriving soon. If you would like to order for the month of February, our class code is JKKPC. Thank you for your continued support in helping to build our classroom library with every order you make.

STEM Fair
Just a friendly reminder, due dates for STEM are approaching fast. Please make sure your child is working on their STEM project every night. We are working on writing the notes/outlines in class and the research paper. This is difficult if scholars do not bring in their research (print outs of Internet sources, books, etc.). We will be writing a bibliography as well, so all the information needs to be there; not just the website address. Please make sure they are bringing these materials to class everyday. They are working on the outline part in Science class and during Enrichment classes this week.

Honor roll assembly and Panda Express Fundraiser Night

Just a friendly reminder that the honor roll assembly is tomorrow. Your child should have received an invitation if s/he made honor roll. Also, the Panda Express fundraiser is tomorrow night from 4-7pm at the Clinton location.

Report cards

Report cards were sent home with scholars today. Please take the report out, sign, and return envelopes to your homeroom teachers. Thank you.

STEM Research

Clarifications: The STEM research paper is due on MARCH 20th! Scholars had time this week to conduct research on their STEM topics in Enrichment class. In addition to this class, scholars should research at home (Internet, books, magazines etc). On Monday, scholars need to bring their research to school so they can use class time to start to write their paper. I will be teaching them the fundamentals of writing a research paper, the importance of not plagiarizing and bibliographies.

Thank you for your continued support during this process. It is a challenge, but my goal is to have  4th grade IA scholars make the county STEM fair! Keep up the hard work! Remember if you have any questions or concerns, please email me or call.

STEM Fair

Just a friendly reminder, scholars should work on STEM Fair every night. Please read the booklet as there is useful information in it. When referring to the deadlines on page 1, you will notice the data collection tool was due today 1/30. When looking at the data collection tool on page 23, scholars had some mistakes. Please refer to page 22 as the collection tool required the following items: title, labels to describe rows (x axis) and columns (y axis), space for repeated trials, space for calculation of median and mean, and data is in metric units. Results of scholars' experiments are not due until February 19th.

JUST DANCE!

Tomorrow IAPTO is hosting a school dance in the IA multi-purpose room.  Fourth Grade Scholars will have their dance at 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM and  DO NOT need a signed permission slip to attend the dance.  However, scholars need to be signed-in when dropped off at 5 PM and signed-out when picked-up at 7 PM.  Scholars whose parents are PTO members can attend the dance for free.  Scholars whose parents are non-PTO members need to pay $4 (cash only).  Light refreshments will be served at the dance.
