The children are doing a great job returning their homework on time. Keep up the good work!!

We need to continue reading each night for at least 15 minutes. Remember that the BOOK IT reading incentive begins this month. The children need to reach their monthly reading goal and return their calendar at the end of the month signed by a parent to get their pizza certificate.

The Adventures of Eeyore Book will start coming home this week. Each child will keep Eeyore one week and must write in his book. Not sure what the Adventures of Eeyore is, ask your child to fill you in. This should be a fun way to practice our writing.

Both grades 2 and 3 have started Unit 2 in math. We continue to work on our basic facts. We have some children who have already passed their addition and subtraction fact tests. At the end of the year Grade 2 should know their addition and subtraction facts and multiplication facts to the 5’s. Grade 3 should know their addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts.
When doing math problems have your child show their work. This will help them see any mistakes.

Third Grade will begin the MEAP next week.
