Project Night and More!


Dear Parents,


Thank you for all the hard work you have done to support your students as they created their projects! A few students showed me their projects early, and they look great! I can’t wait to see all the finished ones on project night.

Some of your students may not have started their projects yet. That’s okay; they do have the weekend to work on them. However, Monday will be a night of ordinary math and science homework, so it will be best for students to complete their projects before Monday in order to avoid a time crunch. The same is true of project papers.

Projects are due on Tuesday morning. Students should bring their projects to school with them on Tuesday morning and leave them at school. Teachers will set the projects up in the MPR after school, and the project displays will be waiting for students when they return to school for project night.

Project night begins at 6:00pm. Students are required to attend as part of their project, and they should be ready to explain their project to teachers and interested visitors. You may bring your students 5-10 minutes early in order to avoid being late, if you wish. Please invite friends and relatives!

In other news, the Trivium East tax credit drive has been extended through Wednesday, January 13. If you submit a tax credit on or before January 13, your students will get an ice cream at our ice cream social on January 15. You can use the link below to tell the government tht you want your tax money to support Trivium East:



Regarding tests: For the rest of the semester, we will have three math test and two science tests. Math test will be held in the third, sixth and ninth weeks of the quarter. Science tests will be held in the 4th and 8th weeks of the quarter. This means the next math test is two weeks from now. It will be on long division. This is one of the most complicated topics in fourth grade math, so please make sure you practice with your students at home!

Several fourth grade students were selected to compete in the next round of our Bard Competition. The second round will take place at Trivium East on Monday, February 1st, and the winner will go on to the interschool Bard Competition. If your student was selected to compete in the second round, they should choose a poem, get it approved by Mr. Ohbayashi, and starting practicing right away!

Also, the Liberty Wildlife Foundation as numerous educational opportunities for interested families. You can view the options here: http://www.libertywildlife.org/education-services/ . Thank you to 
Mrs. Moody for sharing this with us!

These are all the notes I have for you for the week! If you have any questions, please email me at rwycklendt@archwaytriviumeast.org.


Sincerely,


Miss Wycklendt
