Over the Winter Break:
-Reading: Read an "on-level" chapter book over the break. Bring the book into school with you on Monday, January 9th to write a Book Review about it in class.
-Math: If you still haven't made it into the prestigious One-Minute Club, then keep on practicing those multiplication facts using flashcards, websites, and worksheets.
-Reminder: 4th graders ski and snowboard for FREE at Sipapu! Just bring a copy of your first marking period progress report for verification. See the link or call 800-587-2240 for more info.
-Geo-Bee: Our class Geography Bee winners and alternates should study and prep for the TCS school-wide bee on January 13th. The Friends of TCS have generously provided some great prizes for the finalists and school-level winner. Our school winner will go on to compete in the state-level bee in Albuquerque on March 30. The New Mexico winner and their parents get an all-expense paid trip to Washington, DC to participate in the national bee in May! Last year's National Geo-Bee champion won a $25,000 prize and a trip to the Galapagos Islands!
What can you do to get ready? Study an atlas, globe, world almanac, or use the Geo-Bee website to see study tips, sample questions, and take the Daily Geography Quiz. There are also two books available at the NG online store that are very helpful for students to use in their preparation. The titles are "Afghanistan to Zimbabwe," and "National Geographic Bee Official Study Guide." They cost $10 each. See the link for more info.
-Have a fun, safe winter break! Feliz Navidad y Prospero Año Nuevo!
