Everfi Blog Contest

Good afternoon,

Our class uses a program called Everfi which focuses on Financial Literacy.  Students have an opportunity to enter a contest where the first place winner will receive $529 towards a Future Scholar 529 College Savings Plan and a prize pack. Click the link to get more information on this.  Just know that all entries must be turned in by TOMORROW AFTERNOON.  If you want to have your child type their response in class that is completely fine.  We will work more with this tomorrow.  So sorry this is short notice.  I received information that not many people have entered the contest and my class will have a great chance at winning if they enter.

Tomorrow...

Good afternoon families,

Tomorrow we will do MAP Reading testing.  Please make sure your child goes to bed on time and wakes up on time.  Also make sure they have a healthy breakfast.  We want those brains to be alert and focused when they take this test.  Please remember that this test is not timed and we want all students to do their personal best.  We have set goals of strategies for both tests.  Please ask your child about the goal setting sheet and sign it.  They need to bring this back tomorrow!!!

These students have worked hard all year so I didnt send any homework.  They will not have homework tomorrow night either.  The only assignment they MUST do tonight is find a motivating quote that will help them stay focused for success.  They must have it written down because they will write this on their paper before testing.

Enjoy the rest of your evening.  Also, I have not forgotten about the newsletter.  I will send that home Wednesday.
