Be on the Lookout for…
- Please read/listen to the attached message regarding EOG testing from Mrs. Vaughan. A hard copy went home today in Tuesday folders as well. Please view the video or read with your child as well so they know we are all in this together!
- If you or your child have any questions about the EOG’s, please post on this Padlet. I will reply to all q’s on Wednesday in class or thought the padlet itself. word- Let’sDoThis!
- Student-led parent-teacher conferences are being held this week. Students will spend time reflecting on their work from the whole year, goal setting for EOG’s and 4th grade, and sharing some of their favorite pieces. Please plan for at least 1 parent to attend, free of siblings if possible so the focus can remain on your 3rd grader. Sign up slots are listed here. Please RSVP 🙂
- EOG Dates! These are right before and right after Memorial Day, which I know is inconvenient but unavoidable this year. It is SOOOOOOO important your child is present for the test so they can take it with ME, in THEIR classroom, in an environment they are familiar with. If they are late or absent, these conditions cannot be guaranteed. Friday, May 25th Grade 3 Reading and Tuesday, May 29th Grade 3 Math
- Last week of school fun and celebration information is here! I sent through dojo and as hard copies. Students have selected “Emoji Day” for the last day of school. We will participate in plays and dress as emojis.
