West EL Weekly Update October 28, 2024 | | |
|  | Eureka Math Parent Resources | Our math scholars are working hard at becoming true mathematicians. From Kindergarten - Grade 5 our students are tackling everything from counting and cardinality to place value and fractions. In grades 3-5 we are teaching our students the importance of using an assessment notebook to show their thinking and understanding during check ins and module assessments. For specifics regarding each grade, please visit https://drive.google.com/file/d/10FanoYYxlDXfz1bxaaDMgSjAKKegMWp1/view |
 | Halloween Festivities | We’ll be celebrating Halloween on Thursday, October 31st, for students who’d like to join in. Students (K-5) are welcome to wear costumes if they choose and they should be put on at school. Just a few reminders: costumes should be school-friendly, with no masks or items that represent violence (like fake blood or weapons). Our Halloween parade will begin at 9:30 AM and families are invited to congregate outside of door 8 (bus drop area) and to the left and right of that plaza. Gilbane has been made aware of the parade and we will be marching the children down the secured road. Children are by no means required to participate in either the parade or other activities and will be offered an alternative activity if they wish. |
