HOMEWORK
Please check your children's homework when they have finished.  Help them 
correct spelling mistakes.  Help them start and end sentences correctly.  
Fact sheets are to be timed, checked, and initialed.

FLASHCARDS
Each child needs these at home.  If you can not buy them, tell me, and I 
will.  Rapid recall of addition and subtraction facts is necessary 
for the work we're doing at this time.

SPELLING WORDS
are now listed on the Weekly Words page, and students write the words in 
their planners every Friday.  Assessments are on THURSDAYS.
