Class News:
We will take a math test on Tuesday. Please have your child review the practice test sent home on Monday. I am encouraging all students to slow down and check their work when finished. I've noticed that some of the children need to have their addition and subtraction facts memorized (without using their fingers). Knowing the facts by heart will not only help them with addition and subtraction, but also when we begin our multiplication and division unit.
Our spelling and vocabulary quizzes will be this Friday.
Our class poem, "Eat-It-All-Elaine" was sent home on Monday. Please help your child memorize this poem using expression in their voices. We will have tryouts for the part of Elaine next week. The previous two years we have had t-shirts made to go along with our poem. If you know of anyone that would like to assist with this, please let me know.
A new Scholastic book order form was also sent home on Monday. If you would like to order, please have the forms with payment in to me by this Friday. You can also order online for your convenience.
I am looking forward to an all school pep rally this Friday afternoon. I hope that you can all come out to the football game that night. It will be a fun time!
Wishing you all a wonderful week!
