Hello Everyone!

Please use the link below to complete out Self- Study Survey which needs to be completed by Friday. SJA would really appreciate your feedback on how to make your child's learning a better experience for you and for them!

I will not be at school tomorrow as I will be at the cross country meet with the cross country team. The kids have a very busy day tomorrow!


UOI:  Students' presentations are looking wonderful! I think that by next Tuesday or Wednesday everyone will be done. We will also be starting our new UOI on Monday. We will begin Light and Sound.

Math: Today we learned that the second hand moves around a clock and the minute hand moves one tick. We practiced saying time in a variety of ways, and quarter to the hour and quarter past the hour . We also reviewed the hour hand and minute hand. It would be beneficial to all the students that time is practiced at home on an analog or digital clock. For example; if it's 5:56 have the children state that it is 4 minutes to 6. Another example would be 4:15, it's quarter past 4.
