Writing Camp Started Today!!!!!

All week, 5th-grade students will be participating in Writing Camp to sharpen their skills, get some last-minute pointers, and to help them prepare for the SOL Writing Test which is next week! Please encourage students to listen, ask questions, and really prepare themselves for next week by their participation in Writing Camp. Students are broken down in small groups so they can get one-on-one attention from the instructors. We expect to see some AWESOME Writing scores!!!!!!! Read the poster about Writing and think about what YOU can do to become a better and more creative writer.

After School Tutoring On Wednesday: Feb. 18, 2009

Some of the students who are having trouble with Division received an invitation to stay after school this Wednesday until 4:15 to review and practice Division (and other skills if we have time). Your forms are due tomorrow (signed by your parents with either YES or NO checked). Your parents will need to pick you up at 4:15 outside of the Annex building. Please remind them to be on time. You are also reminded that you may bring a snack to eat before we get started with tutoring. The school does not provide a snack or buses this year. If your parents cannot pick you up, we can arrange a time during the day (one day at Activity Time) to review. Please come to tutoring ready to WORK and LEARN....it is NOT recess time. This is a time for you to get better prepared for the SOL Math Test that will be in May!
