Book Report Leaders!

Look at all of the readers in our class! We are well on our way to beating the record of 35 book reports!

Truman Presidential Library

What an amazing field trip we had on Tuesday! Getting to see items from President Trumans lifetime, and memorabilia from his time in the White House, was so much more interesting than just reading about his life online and in books! If you have a chance to visit the Truman Library in Independence, do it!
Thank you to the Truman Library for awarding us with a scholarship that paid for the entry fee of each student, and most of our bus cost. We are so appreciative of their generosity. Enjoy a few pics from our day!

Midterm Time!

The 2^nd Quarter Midterm Report is being sent home today. 

You will see your child's average of grades for the first half of the 2^nd Quarter. Mid-term Reports are filled out so that you can see where your child is currently performing in each content area. Included is the percentage and overall grade for each subject.

As you have seen on the graded work being sent home, 2^nd quarter is a lot tougher than first quarter, and the grades may reflect that. There are still about 4 weeks left of the quarter and time for improvement in all areas with hard work and determination. We will have many testing days in December, so the opportunity to improve grades will be limited. There is no “Homeroom” grade and will not be this year.

Please continue to help your child with homework and chat with him/her about school. Ask your child about his/her reading. Word calling is not enough!  Students must understand what they are reading. Using reading strategies and talking about the reading helps with comprehension. Remember to read at home together, and be sure your child completes the weekly log, then returns it each Friday. The At-Home Reading Logs ARE a weekly reading grade.

Keep practicing those math facts, too! Students who are practicing are showing growth and improvement! They are proud of their hard work and know it is paying off! Be sure subtraction, addition, and multiplication facts are secure for your child. It’s time to begin practicing division at home, as well.

         Continue to check the yellow folder each evening for homework. When homework is sent, please help your child complete it. Homework is an opportunity for students to get extra practice on a skill, and we want to be sure they are practicing correctly!

Let me know if you have any questions. Please sign and return the Midterm Report by Monday. 

Thank you for supporting your child!

Thank You To Our Veterans!

On November 10, we honored Veterans at our annual Veterans Day assembly. Thank you to Suddenlink for bringing our speaker Lt Col Bryony Terrell.

Lt Col Bryony Terrell is a pilot in the Air Force.

She shared the three core values of the military with us.

These are some of our favorite Veterans! We were so happy to be able to recognize you for your service! Thank you for joining us today.

Lindbergh is proud to honor our very own alumni currently serving in the military.

Thank you, Veterans. We were honored to have you with us today.
