UPDATED AS OF 1/14/16- IMPORTANT REMINDERS FOR PARENTS

1. FOR ALL: Study guides are posted on the blog post below. Make sure that you help your child to study for these exams. The main goal is to make sure they review the vocabulary words found in the notebook,

2.FOR ALL: Toys and other electronic items are NOT to be brought to school. Your child is only allowed to bring electronics in for after school on Fridays and is to remain in their backpacks at all times during the day.

3.FOR ALL: If students bring money to school for snack, please be mindful that students should bring in a decent amount. Snack money should remain in their possession at all times.

4.THIRD GRADE received back their reading and social module 1 exam along with quizzes given after the last report card. We went over the corrections in class. These should be used to study and do not need to be brought back to school. I suggest you keep them in a safe place to use in the future to study and review. If your child did not receive a module 1 exam it was because it was never handed back when corrections were due back in November.

5.SECOND GRADE reading study guide has been updated. At the end of the study guide you will find the vocabulary words with their definition. Tomorrow we will work on the social study words.
