January Update

Race Day is January 27th

All 5th grade students have their Forces and Motion Project Packets and Rubrics to complete their race cars. Parents can help built and discuss design ideas with their child but the students should do most of the work. Parent help will be needed to assist in cutting the cardboard and with other tasks in the construction of the cars. Only the items on the materials list may be used. Nothing except paint to decorate the car can be added. The goal is to have the car with the best design to use the car's mass to move the car forward the greatest distance and with the least amount of friction to slow the car down. The 2 drawings and 3 paragraphs must be completed by the Tuesday before the race and turned.

100th Day Auction is the 21st. Please be sure you have signed the parent permission slip for your child to participate with their classroom cash. See note sent home 1/14/11.

REPORT CARDS SENT HOME 1/21/11 PLEASE SIGN ENVELOPE and return to school on Monday. Any parent wanting a conference can contact me at school at 3:15 to 3:45.
