Report Cards: Report cards will be coming home on Friday. It's important to keep in mind a couple of things. First, if your child is not a "3" the goal is to get there by the end of 4th grade. Students develop at their own pace. Second, students will continue to get individualized and group intervention in the areas below a "3" which is considered at grade level. Also, in math, and reading, there are ways to practice at home, which is probably necessary if the practice at school is not enough to master these goals. Students who are struggling with fractions need multiplication and division fluency. Please consider helping your child practice these facts to memory. In reading it's equally important for your child to read consistently a book that is not too easy or too hard at his/her interest level. The research supports that if this happens at school and home, along with quality instruction at school, your child can become a lifelong reader. I look forward to continuing our work together! 

Class Yearbook Photos: If you attend any school events and would like to upload photos for the yearbook, please use this link. Thanks for your help!

Lincoln Symbaloo: Here is a link to the symbaloo. From here, they should go to Clever and sign in using their login & password. I put a sticker with this information in their home folders. This is also a good idea if your child is sick or misses school. They can also access Google Classroom from this link too!

Class Birthdays: none

All About Me: Each week a student is the All About Me student. They have completed a poster in class(but may need to finish it at home) and get to share special things about themselves each day. When it is your child's turn, I will send home a paper stating everything he or she needs. Angel is up this week!
