Homework Please continue to read nightly with your child. Please keep your child’s book in his/her folder and return each day-even if the book has not been mastered. Signing your child’s book lets me know you have read with your child. We will read the book again at school. Your child will get a new book once he/she can demonstrate the ability to read the book fluently with minimal errors. Noteworthy News The students will bid farewell to our student teacher on Wednesday. She has been here for 16 weeks! All the students were able to benefit from the extra pair of hands. suzanne.lendy@cusd200.org
