How do Canyon Creek fourth graders prepare for Writing STAAR? With a fun filled week of Cruise Write Along! Students have honed their writing and are ready to shine on the STAAR test. A special thank you to the room moms for providing the daily snacks. Be sure to log in to your child's SeeSaw account to see pics from the week. I am in need of tissues and prizes for my prize box. Dollar Tree items or seasonal items would be great for tables points. Thank you in advance.
NOTE FROM THE OFFICE: TESTING DAYS
If you have a student in 4th or 5th grade, please refrain from scheduling doctor appointments that will require your student to be pulled out of class on scheduled testing days. Students who have not completed their testing at their scheduled lunch time will eat lunch in their classroom. We ask that all parents refrain from eating lunch with their children these two days. Our lunch schedule will be adjusted for testing so we cannot guarantee what time your children will be in the lunchroom. Parents are welcome to visit during lunch on any other days.
STAAR Snacks:
The 4th grade Homeroom moms have provided snacks for test day. Your child is welcome to bring additional snacks. We do ask that all snacks are dry and nutritious. We also ask that you do not send snacks like Cheetos, Ranch Doritos, etc. due to the orange and greasy coating. Messy fingers mean messy scan trons. If food is transferred onto their answer document there is A LOT of work that has to go into transcribing the whole document! UGH!! :)
MEADOWS CENTER FIELD TRIP:
Our field trip to the Meadows Center will be on Thursday, April 11th. Students will need to bring a completely disposable sack lunch (including drinks). Please pack snacks separately from lunch as we will have snack before we leave school at 9:30.
ESCAPE ROOM WISH LIST: Please place your name next to the lock(s) you are kindly purchasing.
