Here are some reminders:

➔ Your child will carry home his/her binder daily.  During the week,  they will have Decodable Booklets.  Please have them read these nightly.  It will help tremendously on their reading tests. 

➔Please initial the Behavior Calendar nightly.

➔ It is very important that they complete a Reading and Math section on Homework Packet, but they complete only the certain day.  These skills will be on upcoming tests. Both start this week.

➔Encourage your child to start counting money. Each day they will get money for being on green, blue, purple, pink to use in the school store. 

⇢Special Snack on Friday 22nd. Please put money in envelope with name on it.
