We have had such a busy week. Red Ribbon week as been great for the kids thus far. Thank you to all of the parents who helped organize! The kids have enjoyed it. They are looking forward to backwards day tomorrow.

Our students had a math test today over division. I noticed that students know how to do division but are slow because they do not know their math facts. IT IS SO IMPORTANT THAT YOU PRACTICE MATH FACTS AT HOME TO HELP YOUR CHILD BECOME A STRONGER MATH STUDENT!

Be sure to be asking your child about their Words Their Way words. I make an extra copy each week for them to study and practice sorting at home. Practice with them, you may notice words have some fun patterns.

Parent teacher conferences are coming up very soon: Wednesday, Nov. 4 (4:30-8:00 pm) and Tuesday, Nov. 10th ( 8:00 am - 3:00pm) Please double check that you know when yours is so that you attend on time. Let me know if you need a new time. Thank you for your support!

Each student will be taking a pre-assessment to see what knowledge he/she already have and then additional practice will be planned. A post-assessment will be given at the end of the year to check learning. Ask me if you are interested in le
