Weekend Tidbits

A few things as we begin the weekend:

• Autumn Moon Festival (9/10-11) in San Francisco: http://moonfestival.org/phone/index.html
• We finished Topic 1 Test online via Pearson's website. The class did a great job on the 20-question test and averaged 94%. Each student knows how he/she fared because the online program notified them of their score, so ask your child.
• Next week, Science Lab starts (Friday).
• Also starting next week, students who would like to be a lunch helper can do so. They have a form to take home to be signed and returned on Monday.
• Upcoming this week: 
• Open Magazine Time for Kids Quiz #1 on Monday.
• Open Book Chapter 1 Science Test on Wednesday.
• Donation letter wasn't distributed today. It's going in the Wednesday Folder.
• Add another date: the Fourth Grade will have a grade level meeting day on 9/19. We will be on campus but there will be subs.
• Lastly, if you haven't turned in your Emergency Kit please do so as soon as possible. I only have kits from 11 (of 29) students. 

Have a good weekend!
