Athletic Field Day is coming March 10^th! The Archway students will compete in a half day of ancient Greek and modern-day Olympic themed events such as baton relay races, shot put and more! Students will be creating ancient Greek cuffs to wear during their competitions. Please send toilet paper and paper towel rolls to school for them to prepare and decorate in Art class.

We are looking for 15-20 volunteers to help organize and facilitate the athletic events. The day will be split up into two parts with grades K-2 participating in the morning followed by grades 3-5 participating in the afternoon. Volunteers will receive early communication regarding the events and need to be available for a walk-through 30-45 minutes prior to the event.

We will be working on persuasive essays this week in language arts.

The students are really understanding decimals! I continue to be pleased with their progress in math.

There will be a history quiz on Thursday.

      This week in science, we are studying magnetism and go on from there to electricity.

     

      We continue learning about poetry. A quiz will be on Friday.

      Thanks to all who donated boxes of tissues : ) Please keep them coming, they are still greatly needed and much appreciated! We could also use more band aids.

Please clear out the “take home” folders regularly. The only thing that should be in there is homework to return and any papers that help with that homework.
