Weekly Highlights, Field Trip, and Multiplication Quizzes

Mark your calendars! Our family gathering will take Friday, October 7th @ 8:00 am


Class T-Shirt Display! Our Campus School Centennial t-shirts were worn with pride and joy!




Our 1900-1910 Booth Display turned out wonderful. Thank you for your parental support in making this project such a success.




Did you ever wonder what Discovery Testing looks like? We'll now you know. It's truly an exciting event.




-Students will take three timed multiplication quizzes this week. It is imperative that you work with your child to help them with this important skill. The "timed factor" is important, because students need to be fluent in their multiplication facts - in other words, they need to know them backwards and forwards!

-The fourth grade teachers recently met to discuss our Wordly Wise curriculum. This year, we have decided to integrate Wordly Wise into our Daily 5 reading curriculum, and eliminate the spelling portion of our weekly Wordly Wise assessment. It is important that students are working hard to spell words accurately on a daily basis, instead of solely studying them for a weekly spelling test. Another big change from last year, is that students will complete weekly Wordly Wise "Tic Tac Toe" vocabulary activities during class, rather than as Homefun.


-Thursday, September 29th we will to the Brooks Museum! If you are driving, please be prepared to depart Campus School @ 10:00 am. We will return around 12:00 pm.

-Friday, September 30, 2011 we will visit Elmwood Cemetery. Our reservation is from 10:00 - 12:00. If you are driving please be prepared to depart Campus School @ 9:30. We will have lunch in the picnic area after our tour and will depart about 12:40 to return to Campus School.
*PLEASE REMEMBER TO PACK YOUR CHILD A SACK LUNCH FOR THIS TRIP
