Dear 4C Families,

This week we have our Field Day on Thursday and an early release on Friday, which is also Great Hearts Day.

Hot lunch will not be served on Field Day, the students will be eating in class and having an academic contest from information that they have learned so far this year. Our class will represent Thebes during the day and our color is Black. So please have your student wear a black shirt, if possible. We could also use a couple of volunteers to go around with our class and help with water and other things that might arise. We can use some donations of water bottles and fruit (cuties, apple slices etc.) for snacks. Please let me know if you can help in any of these things. 

The school is also asking for more volunteers to help with the running of field day.

Here's the link if you would like to help: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e084fada62ca2f85-athletic1

Please see my post from last week about Great Hearts Day and Valentine's Day.

Friday the 17th will be our field trip to the MIM (Musical Instrument Museum). I believe we are still looking for 3 chaperones so please let me know if you are interested. Please check the payment portal under field trip to see if you have paid. I cannot check this, so if you have any questions about it, please contact the office.

There will be no school on Monday, February 20 in celebration of Presidents' Day.

Academics this week:

We will be reading Chapters 14 and 15 in Wizard of Oz and working on the study guide for the next test (which will be the next week).

In history, we will study the ancient Arizonans and continue working in our lap book.

In science, we will watch demonstrations on heat transference and study air masses and weather fronts.

We continue with decimals in math.

Thank you and have a great week!

Mr. Leonard
