April 28- May 2, 2014

This week our students attended our Spring Ace-It Seminars! These are some pictures of our "Looming into Spring" Seminar! Students learned how to create bracelets through different techniques with out a loom. We learned how to do a fish tail and inverted fish tail with the use of two pencils, and the dragon scale with the use of a fork. Some Falcons took their creativity to a new level and created unique charms for their bracelets and headbands. Great job Falcons!

Congratulations and best of luck to our 6th grade Falcons who are going to compete in this year's UIL State Competition in UTSA, we are very proud of you! On a different note we have only two weeks left before the STAAR so we will continue our Mathematics Review. 

Students: Please start taking your Math journal home and study any objectives you need help with.

This past week in SAT our 6th grade's Falcons learned a cheesy lesson in square roots. Students used cheez its to understand perfect squares and practiced their knowledge with the "I have, who has?" game.

As we say good bye to a busy month we welcome one of the most important months in our school year. Welcome April! This month our Falcons will take the STAAR Exams and we have to finish preparing, this is the month when all of our hard work pays off. This week in Math we will review everything about angles and degrees of triangles and quadrilaterals. In SAT Math we will learn all about perfect and non-perfect square roots.
