Team Mindcrafters Daily Update 5/ 21 /15


Parents,

FTMS visitation. Our visit to FT was informative and fun. The registration day is in the early part of August. You will receive information about that on email or maybe by letter.


Fun Fest. Make sure you have turned in the inflatables permission slip for your child! 

Dress in layers. Please apply sunscreen, and wear comfortable shoes. Send water. The only lunch available to buy is peanut butter and jelly pocket.


Math Challenge Technology Party. We are planning a "Technology" party for next Thursday in Math class. To earn this party, students will need to have met their quarter goal for number of objectives mastered in Accelerated Math. This can be seen by looking at your child's AM TOPs report when they scan their homework. See image below.


​At the technology party, we plan to play Minecraft and other collaborative, creative, and educational games. Students will be allowed to bring their own devices this day (will your permission) and will be allowed to play games approved by me.


Online checkers. We will be having a 4th grade checkers tournament on Friday during our game portion of Fun Fest. Here's a link to an online version they can use to practice at home.


Reminders:
  • Sign and return Bike Hike permission slip
