Review of our week:

Miss Raegan is doing a great job in our class.  It is wonderful to have some extra help. In math we are working on adding double digit numbers. We are learning about the layers of the earth. 

Our behavior is getting much better, but we are still working on it and are still doing trackers.  If you could encourage your child to do their best and listen at school, we would really appreciate it.  Thanks for all of your support in this. 

Reading:

The end of the school year is right around the corner.  I know this time of year gets really busy.  Please help your child to continue reading every night.  Remember to fill your monthly reading record and the Kite Flight reading record as well.  This is a great fundraiser for our school.  The PTA gets money for every reading record that is turned in.

Review of our week:

We have had a very full week with only 4 days.  Miss Raegan is doing such a great job in our class.  I have been doing some assessing this week.  I am so happy with the progress we are making in our reading.  Please make sure your child is reading every night.  

As a class we have been struggling with not talking and listening to instructions.  We are using a tracker to track our class.  Yesterday, was our first day.  They will be coming home if they have a zero or more than 2 ones, if not they will not be bringing them home.  There were several who realized they weren’t doing what they were supposed to, to be able to get a 2 and changed their behavior.  I hope you will talk to your child if they are bringing these trackers home.
