Week at a Glance September 14 - 18

 Mrs. Creger's Fifth Grade News

       National GRANDPARENTS' Day

 Due to our current situation and restrictions, 

there will be no annual grandparents' celebration this year.

However, the students have made cards they can give to their grandparents.  

Note from the Teacher

        
        We are excited to be using our Chromebooks. Each student has received a Chromebook device to use during the school year. I will be sending home the technology contract agreement with your child for you to review again.  As part of our weekly instruction, the students will continue learning Chromebook rules and procedures. We are excited to use these devices in our daily instruction as we develop new skills and programs. Just a reminder that the fifth grade will use their Chromebooks during school hours only. They are not allowed to carry them home.  

        Please continued to work on the state report project. This project is due on September 18. Please encourage your child to be a smart, considerate, and respectful student. Thank you for the support!
