WOW, the weather has been crazy!! The second nine weeks was extended until this Thursday, so report cards will come home the following week. The beginning of the third nine weeks brings higher expectations… remember, your child must “successfully” pass kindergarten to go on to first grade… which means their grades must indicate they have achieved mastery of kindergarten skills. At this point in the year we get more into the application of skills and writing sentences, addition/subtraciton, etc. Pleae keep practicing!! If you have and questions please let me know. Have a gre at weekend!
