Two weeks until Thanksgiving! Wow! We are moving right along in here!
I am sending home an AR print out in your child's folder today. Hopefully you find several AR test have been taken with a score of 80% or above. If your child is taking AR tests but failing them, this will only lower their total percentage thus hindering them from receiving the AR money. The reading log is a great tool in encouraging your child to read on a daily basis.
There is also a field trip form in this weeks folder. Please notice our field trip to the Youth Museum is not until Monday, 12/14. We will be returning to the school in time to eat lunch here so no sack lunches are needed for this trip. If you are interested in chaperoning, please let me know.
We wrote in our agendas the specials calendar for the rest of 2009. Now that sounds strange - doesn't it? If the days change again we will change them in our agendas. BUT hopefully we are good until after Christmas Break.
