Also your child’s reading bag is in his/her back pack.  Please make sure your child is reading.

Next week will be our social studies test.  A study guide will be posted online later this week.

To recap, homework tonight is:

  1. Practice math study guide
  2. Read your book bag books for 20 minutes
