Dear Parents,

Quick Update on the Week:

History: We will have a quiz on Thursday related to Spanish in the Southwest, Territorial Days, and Arizona Statehood. Students will be encouraged to use their history notes for studying, and making flash cards about the Spanish explorers and settlers in the Southwest.

English Language Arts: Our first Poetry test will be this Friday, and students will need to memorize one of the poems from their packets and be able to analyze it to some extent. Expectations will be set this week.

Math: Math test next week Tuesday on adding and subtracting decimals.

In Other News:

Athletic Field Day is coming March 10th! The Archway students will compete in a half day of ancient Greek and modern-day Olympic themed events such as baton relay races, shot put and more! Students will be creating ancient Greek cuffs to wear during their competitions. Please send toilet paper and paper towel rolls to school for them to prepare and decorate in Art class. 
We are looking for 15-20 volunteers to help organize and facilitate the athletic events. The day will be split up into two parts with grades K-2 participating in the morning followed by grades 3-5 participating in the afternoon. Volunteers will receive early communication regarding the events and need to be available for a walk-through 30-45 minutes prior to the event. Please follow this link to sign up: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e084fada62ca2f85-athletic. Please email Coach Cook with any questions: dcook@archwaylincoln.org. Thank you for your support!

Thank you and hope everyone has a great week!

Mr. Leonard
