Updates for the week…

Remember to have your child go onto Zearn and Study Island Eggs daily

Please send in a healthy snack for your child daily, we typically have snack in the morning.

I explained this to students last week but I want you to know why there are two numbers on the spelling test. Students will now receive two grades for spelling. One for correctly spelling the spelling words (lower case unless at the beginning of a sentence or is a proper noun) and one for language. This will be for the sentence written, correctly spelling high frequency, capital and lower case letters where they belong, and correct punctuation at the end of a sentence.

3^rd graders have started timed multiplication tests! Keep up the great home practice. Thank you.
