Team Mindcrafters Weekly Update - 3/26/18

Parents,

I hope everyone had a great weekend.  Looking forward to an awesome week!

Science Test - Tomorrow students will have a Science test over Slow Changes of the Earth.  The homework tonight is to complete the practice test on Moodle. (un:2026XXX pw:aw+lunch number) This can be done as many times as necessary to study.  Each attempt is also worth 1 Class Dojo point!  100% onnthe practice test earns a "Practice the Key" badge.

Math News - Today and tomorrow we will be assessing over a BIG unit on fractions and decimals.  Just a heads-up, many students may end up with a "3" for these standards on the grade card because there are a lot of them and some students haven't had the time to demonstrate mastery (yet).  If they haven't mastered everything that's okay.  It will show as a "3" that they have gained partial mastery they will have a chance to raise it to a "4" for full mastery in 4th quarter.

200% Pizza Party - Congratulations to Carter, Julian, Dean, Kacee, Rex, Madeline, Roya, Brody, Collin, McKenna, Olivia, Molly and Julia who all reached 200% of their AR goal for the 3rd quarter!  Those students will have a pizza party lunch on Wednesday, March 28. 4th quarter goals are now set, and will need to be met by May 25.
