Friendly Reminder:
When we finish a story I will always send their
Student Skills Practice Workbooks home to
reinforce skills we have learned in class. You will
find some extra skills pages that we didnt complete
in class. These workbooks are NOT HOMEWORK.
The students can work on these pages at their
leisure, and they do not need to be returned to me.
These are wonderful extension activities that review
key concepts covered during Language Arts.

I wanted to thank you for offering to

volunteer in our classroom. I will be
sending home Mystery Reader

new classroom schedule due to
some McAnnulty servicing schedule

We have a NEW Log-In codes for the Allstar Envision Math site. I will send
these home with the Allstars on Monday. Please throw away the form you
received during Meet the Teacher. I have shown the students how to Log-On in
the classroom and select the choices to set-up their Homepage for their first
visit.
They will only need to do this on their first visit, then they will be able to
access everything with just a few clicks. If you have any difficulty just let me
know!!
