Dear Parents and Students,

Happy 4th week of school! Tomorrow is 9/11, the last day for the students to complete their 9/11 interview and turn it it on Wednesday. We will have a special flag ceremony tomorrow at 2 pm. Also remember to keep filling out those moon journals! Even if you have to look it up online. Tomorrow we will be testing on Chapter 1 in math which includes prime factorization, finding the least common multiple and greatest common factor, long division with decimals, long multiplication with decimals, and addition and subtraction with decimals. On Wednesday we will begin working with fractions. In science we are continuing to learn about the solar system. On Thursday the 13th of this week I will be at a professional meeting to help me learn new ideas for science so the students will have a substitute that day.Our field trip to UVU is coming up on Thursday Sept. 27th. We have been brushing up on our volleyball skills to help us enjoy the big game! Please continue to have your students read 30 minutes minimum daily! Thank you!Have a wonderful week!

Love,

Professor Malouf
