It's The Weekend!

We had another great, cool day here at Northpoint! A special thank you to all of the moms that gave up part of their mornings to come in and help out! I am very grateful for your help!

Please make sure you carefully go through backpacks sometime before Monday. You will find an important paper in there about Picture Day, which is on Wednesday and also a sheet regarding Lego League which will be starting up soon.

LA: We had an assessment filled day. Fridays are pretty jammed packed with the assessments that we do from our reading series. For this being the first time, the students did an excellent job working through them. Please watch for these to come home on Monday. The only test that needs to be signed and returned will be the back sheet of the weekly assessment. More info. about this on Monday's blog.

HW: It's never to early to start thinking about the reading project that is due on October 10th. Please also remember that book orders are due on Tuesday!

Math: We had our first center rotation day. The students rotated around 3 centers. They had the opportunity to do some math fact practice on the computer, play a game reviewing place value and work on subtraction with regrouping on a review sheet.

HW: None

Health: Today, we reviewed the skeletal system and introduced both the muscular and digestive systems. There will be a quiz on these three systems Tuesday.

HW: Students need to get the sense organ quiz signed over the weekend.

I hope everyone has a great, safe weekend! Go Penn!
