Mad Science and CSA's

CSA tests are this week so please study and prepare!
Tuesday- Language Arts
Wednesday- Science

And just to add a little fun we are having a Mad Science opportunity for students to be the scientists on Tuesday afternoon. There is a sign up on Google Classroom and students are encouraged to do a fun science experiment or demonstration for their classmates.

Finally, remember the Elements Project is due Monday. This is worth a test grade and ten points are taken off each day it is late.

This week in our Homeroom

We will have a visitor from the Virginia Air and Space Museum and Guidance with Mrs. Adams.
CSA's will be the last week in October for all 4 subjects. Start studying!

Students in my Language Arts and Science classes can always ask to come see me during Intervention to make up missing work, improve a grade or get extra help. Intervention is on Day 3 and Day 6 during Long Resource.

We could really use pencils, student scissors, books for our library, Scotch tape and Duck tape.
Thank you very much!

What's going on this week?

It was great to meet with many parents today! Thanks for taking the time to come in and for connecting to Class Dojo. I really appreciate your support at home!

If you did not get the chance to meet with me today but would still like to, I will send an invite to my November conference dates as soon as I know my available times.

Please check out our Wish List for items needed for the classroom. Thank you!

October News

Hi everyone!

Progress reports will be coming home on Thursday. I am scheduling parent/teacher conferences for Monday, October 9 and a later date will be in November. If you would like to schedule a conference with me for next Monday and you did not receive an invite, please e-mail me at mphillips@hampton.k12.va.us and I will send you an invite for the remaining slots. Thanks!

We will be going to the Hampton History Museum on Thursday. Please make sure your child has brought back his/her permission slip. We will be eating at school when we return so students do not need a special lunch.

Monday will be an Early Release day and students will be dismissed at 1:49.

Please see our Classroom Wish List for needed supplies. Thank you!
