For the week of April 22-26, here is a tentative schedule for Skrobanski’s Superheroes:
 *Please be sure students are checking the weather daily to dress appropriately for outdoor recess.
*Here at Indian Trail we are following our expectations of respect, responsibility, and safety.  Our class is really focusing on listening to others before you talk as well as a smooth transition between subjects!

We are now in the 4th Quarter. With that being said, there are higher expectations. Please understand there are special events that are coming up and students may miss (minutes) as a result of behavior.   This is an individual consequence.  The students and I have had many conversations about this, and they have had their fair share of warnings.  Please make sure you are talking with your child about this, as I am enforcing this at school.
Thank you for your continued support.

*We have been using this program called XtraMath to increase speed and accuracy in arithmetic here at school.  Students have also been utilizing math prodigy and front row now known as Freckle. From now until the end of the school year, each student will be spending some time at home each day practicing math on a computer, tablet, or phone.  The following morning, I will check in with the information to see the progress being made.  Students will be working Monday night, Tuesday night, Wednesday night, and Thursday night!  If a student does not complete their XtraMath that night with the exception of being absent, a TRAILBLAZER letter will be taken.  Thank you for your support.

S.S.- State Float is due May 2.  Please refer back to the State Float Project packet!
Science-We will begin our next unit on Rock Patterns!  Words to recognize are earthquake, fossils, rock formations, rock layers, patterns, landscape, and evidence.
 If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to call (815) 469-6993 or email me at jskrobanski@summithill.org.
