Snail Fundraiser … This is the last week for the fall fundraiser.  Please be sure to turn them in by Friday!

Spelling Test Info … We have been working on our listening skills and today I noticed some improvement & effort!  One of the things that you may notice on your child’s spelling test is that they may have spelled a word correctly, but because it had a capital letter it was marked wrong.  Before turning in each test I ask students to check their words…make sure there aren’t any capital letters (unless one of the words is a name)…make sure you put your name in the upper right corner…make sure that you spell lesson correctly in the upper left.  These are things that I asked them to check.  If they didn’t check them when they had the opportunity then it was marked wrong. I just wanted to clarifyJ.

Listening Skills … Our listening skills have been lacking lately.  We (meaning I) had a very exhausting week trying to speak over the noise level or try to keep them focused and follow directions. We had many redoes during this week!  Please keep our class in your prayers!

Field Trip Form … Just a reminder that slips are due back with payment by Tuesday, October 1st.

Storia App … If you haven’t ever heard of Storia, please take time to check it out!  It’s a great eReader app that allows you to get books through Scholastic, book orders and website, that help students build their critical thinking skills.  You will receive 5 free eBooks just for signing up!
