Hello Families,

Sometimes we need reminders! 

This is a kind reminder to all students to remember that Christmas Holidays have not yet started and we still have tremendous amount of learning to do.  Lately, students seem to be sliding when it comes to getting homework done, listening in class, and paying attention in class.  If you could gently remind your child that we must practice these things in order to succeed in school that would be great!

HOMEWORK:

•  Unit 3 Math Test tomorrow....STUDY STUDY STUDY
• 4 sentences (main idea/topic sentence) for Expository Writing due.
• 6's test Friday
