Dear Families,
Wow, can you believe that this is the sixth
week of school already?
Please remember that your child’s
homework folder and agenda need to go home
and come back each day to school. On Friday
we will have our spelling test. Please help your
child “begin with the end in mind” and study
every night. Also, remember that reading logs
are due every Monday, and 100 minutes read =
a grade of 100!
