Parents,

Thank you so much for supporting this year’s North Schuylkill Spartan Fun Run! The program was a huge success, and I know everyone had so much fun! There’s just one more thing left to do.

We need your help collecting all our pledges. As a class, we raised $1864.50 - our goal is to collect 100% of all pledges by 02/01/2018.

Pledges can be paid by credit card online on funrun.com, cash, or check.

All sponsors that included their email address when making a pledge will receive an email reminder and instructions to pay their pledge. Please reach out to those sponsors who did NOT include their email address to let them know they can send cash or check to you, which will then be sent to school in your child’s collection envelope (coming home soon)!

Finally, please encourage your student to thank all their sponsors for helping our school!

Thank you again for your support! Let me know if you have questions.

Parents, 
Thank you again for supporting our school through the North Schuylkill Spartan Fun Run! Our goal is to raise $10,000 for field trips, education programs, and fun day, and we need your help!  

This weekend we are issuing a special challenge. Visit funrun.com to see the bonus prize your child can earn simply by getting a total of $2 per lap in new pledges (or $60 in flat donations) this weekend only.
And if you’re looking for an easy way to ask for a pledge, create your very own Student Star Video by uploading a photo of your student to funrun.com. It’s a fun movie trailer starring your child! You can share it on email or social media to ask for a pledge.
Thank you again for helping our class!
                               PS - If you haven’t registered your child on funrun.com, search "North Schuylkill."

This week we began Topic 5-Multiplying by 1-Digit Numbers.  We are also practicing our 0-9 facts.  In this topic we will learn methods to multiply two-and three-digit numbers by one-digit numbers.  By looking for patterns in multiplication facts, he or she can also multiply multiples of 10 by one-digit numbers using mental math.  Here are some sample patterns that your child is learning:
               
      4 x 5 = 20                        6 x 8 = 48 
      4 x 50 = 200                     6 x 80 = 480
      4 x 500 = 2,000                6 x 800 = 4,800

You can look for homework this week on Topic 5, Lessons 3, 4, and 5.  Also, fact corrections will be due on Wednesday and we will have a fact quiz that day as well.
