The Tiger Times

Dear CMIT South Elementary Families and Friends,

As we step into the beautiful month of June, we are officially entering the final stretch of the school year! I want to extend a huge wave of encouragement to our wonderful students and families. This is the time to gather all our energy, stay focused, and finish the year with the same excellence we started with. Parents, your dedication and partnership have been our anchor all year long, thank you for continuing to guide our scholars to the finish line!

With the arrival of a new month, we are introducing our final character word of the school year: Integrity. As we wrap up our academic journey together, let’s reflect on this powerful guiding principle:

"Integrity is doing the right thing, even when no one is watching." — C.S. Lewis

Whether our Tigers are completing their final projects, enjoying recess, or transitioning into summer, practicing integrity ensures they are building a strong foundation for life. Let's encourage them to let their character shine brightest in these final weeks!

Dear Second Grade Families,

Can you believe it? We only have 14 days of school left! 🗓️✨ We are so proud of how much our scholars have grown this year, and we want to finish the year strong.

MAP Testing Next Week 📈 Next week, we will be finishing up our final round of MAP testing. To ensure your scholar is ready to do their best, please make sure they:

• 🔋 Bring their Chromebook fully charged every day.

• 😴 Get a good night’s rest.

• 🍳 Eat a healthy breakfast.

Field Trip Fun We had an absolutely wonderful time on our last field trip to the Watkins Park Nature Center! The scholars did a great job exploring nature and learning about our local environment. It was a fantastic way to celebrate their hard work.

Field Day is Coming! Our next big event is Field Day! It’s going to be a day full of fun, games, and team spirit.

• 📝 Permission Slips: If you haven’t already, please sign and return the permission slips as soon as possible so your scholar can participate!

Thank you for your continued support as we head into these final weeks of second grade!

Reading Updates:

We are excited to share that we have officially concluded our reading curriculum for the school year! Our scholars have worked incredibly hard, and it has been a joy to watch their literacy skills grow over the past several months.

Important Note on Textbooks: Starting today, scholars will begin bringing their reading textbooks home. Please note that these are yours to keep! You do not need to send them back to school. We encourage you to keep them over the summer for extra practice or to revisit some of your child's favorite stories from the year.

Thank you for supporting your reader every step of the way!

Math Updates:

Final Math Unit: Exploring Shapes!

We are officially diving into our final math unit of the year: Geometry! 📐 Over the next two weeks, scholars will be identifying, describing, and drawing two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes. We will be focusing on their attributes, such as the number of faces, edges, vertices (corners), and angles.

To help your scholar master these concepts before the school year ends, here are a few fun and easy activities you can try at home:

• Shape Scavenger Hunt: Ask your child to find "real-world" versions of shapes around the house. Can they find a rectangular prism in the pantry (a cereal box)? A sphere in the toy bin (a ball)? A cylinder in the kitchen (a soup can)?

• "Build It" Geometry: Use toothpicks and marshmallows (or playdough) to build 2D shapes like squares and triangles, or 3D shapes like cubes and pyramids. This is a great way to count vertices and edges!

• Secret Shape Riddles: Play a guessing game! Give clues like, "I am thinking of a shape with four equal sides and four right angles. What am I?" (A square!).

• Shape Art: Challenge your scholar to create a picture using only specific shapes. For example, "Can you draw a robot using three triangles, four rectangles, and two circles?"

We look forward to seeing our scholars become "Geometry Experts" as we wrap up our final days together! 🌟

Grade Level Blurb:

The countdown is on with only 14 more school days remaining! The students are definitely focused on the finish line. Although it was a short week, it was certainly a busy one, beginning with our exciting field trip to the Merkle Wildlife Sanctuary. The drizzle did not stop the students from enjoying this memorable experience. They had the opportunity to release a freshwater sunfish back into the Patuxent River ecosystem, try fishing, and even put on waders to enter the river and catch fish using a two-person push net. This method of catching fish is called seining.

Throughout this school year, students have participated in a variety of field trips and hands-on experiences designed to enrich and extend their learning. We hope they have enjoyed and benefited from these wonderful and memorable opportunities.

Field Day is quickly approaching! Please be sure to return the permission slip so your student is able to leave the school grounds to participate. Students will still need to bring lunch from home or get one from the school cafeteria. Also, please keep an eye on the weather forecast in case sunblock is needed.

Reading Updates:

This week in Reading, students began watching the movie Holes as an introduction to our upcoming novel study. While watching, students are practicing comprehension and listening skills by following key events, characters, and settings throughout the story. Next week, students will begin a collaborative “quick read” activity where groups will read assigned chapters from the book, work together to comprehend and summarize the most important details, and present their findings back to the class.

Math Updates:

Our mathematicians spent time this week reviewing important skills and strategies in preparation for MAP Math testing. We are excited to share that we have now completed all of our Math testing for the school year (unless make-up testing is needed). Yay!

Some of our students have also begun exploring the Cartesian Coordinate System and practicing how to locate ordered pairs on a graph. We will continue building these skills next week through engaging and fun hands-on activities.

Science Updates:

Some of our scientists investigated the three states of matter. We listened to the story Ice Boy by David Ezra Stein, which connected perfectly to our learning. Throughout the story, Ice Boy transforms through all three states of matter. After reading, we used a states of matter anchor chart to help complete a follow-up activity that reinforced the concepts of solids, liquids, and gases.

Health Updates:

In Health, we continued learning about the bones in our bodies. We read about and discussed different ways to protect our bones and keep our bodies healthy. Students then completed an activity in which they identified and listed five ways to help keep their bones strong and protected.

Grade Level Blurb:

Greetings Team 4Ward,

I hope that message finds you well. We are now down to the last month and 14 days of Fourth Grade. We will have concluded our field trips for the year. Mrs Weldon and Mrs. Pearson classes had a chance to explore nature and determine humans' role in the environment. We thank you all for your support with our field trips this year. Our students had the opportunity to have new experiences and visit places they haven’t been before. We will finish any testing and make up testing this week.

⛱️Plan for Summer:

Summer break is fast approaching and this is the time to plan how your scholar will continue to grow. i-Ready and IXL will be available to our students throughout the summer. Also take some time to look into the different offerings given by the Prince George’s County Memorial Library System. Students should have at least 45 minutes of practice in math and reading weekly. Begin planning now how your scholar will reach this goal each week. The county also releases an enrichment packet each year that can be used.

💻Many class activities use online tools. A charged computer ensures your child can fully participate in lessons and complete assignments. Our students also need a pair of wired headphones to complete activities and for testing. Students who arrive on time are better prepared for learning and reduce classroom disruptions. Please plan to have your child at school a few minutes early each day. A healthy breakfast helps students focus and have energy for learning. School breakfast is available daily until 8:00 when students arrive in the morning.

We are grateful for your ongoing support in helping students feel safe, prepared, and excited about learning. Thank you for partnering with us to make this a positive school year. Let’s finish strong together!!

Warmly,

Team 4Ward
