Week of Jan.5-8[ PARENTS- If you have not been reading the information under
the "Announcements" section on my web page, I encourage you to do so. It is
written to you each week. Also, carefully look at what is in your child's

child's. I hope you already knew these things. I sent this info. home in my
first letter.] Please realize that this is just a rough

Handwriting: We write in cursive for spelling and language. Our DOL is also
done in cursive. Encourage your child to practice at home.
Always practice multiplication and division math facts. Your child should
always have an AR book with them. This is a proven system to increase reading
comprehension. Keep them reading!
