HORSESHOE CRAB BEACH WALK ON SUNDAY

If you plan on coming on the horseshoe crab walk along Plumb Beach on Sunday, please let me know so I can expect you.
Meeting time: 8:30 A.M., Sun., May 20, 2012

Directions to Plumb Beach: Take Ocean Parkway (toward ConeyIsland) to the Belt Parkway East. After Exit 9, move into the right lane. You will be getting off soon. Look carefully on the right for a parking lot and pull in. This is the Plumb Beach parking lot. If you reach Exit 11 (Flatbush Ave.), you have gone too far. If you are lost, call me at (917) 945-9696.

FOURTH GRADE SCIENCE TEST COMING UP!

It's time to put on your science thinking caps. The hands-on portion of the state science test begins on Wed., May 23, 2012 and ends on June 1, 2012. Students will be scheduled in different groups. The written exam takes place June 4, 2012 in the student's classroom.

Please study your science notebook, go to brainpopjr.com, and read, read, read. Practice your vocabulary. And remember, never forget to write the unit of measure (centimeters, milliliters, degrees, grams) because you will lose a point each time you forget. Eyeballs, eyeballs, eyeballs......

Do your best work and never stop trying as hard as you can! I'm on your side kids!
