Dear Students and Parents,
We are entering our sixth week of school.  Please remember you are to read nightly
and practice addition and subtraction flash cards building fluency.
Parents please check your child's agenda nightly for homework and important dates.
If your child hasn't written in their agenda ask them about this.  Everyday they should have
homework with a specific task to do in their nightly reading.

Please contact me through your child's agenda.  I will meet with all parents and students
the first quarter to share the progress your student has made.
