It is hard to believe that it is already starting the month of November.
Time has certainly flown. We will be going to "Junie B. Jones" at the Acuff
Theater this Thursday. We will leave around 8:00 and return sometime around
noon.
Please read your Monday newsletter each week. It usually has important
happenings that you need to know about.
We are in full swing. Every student should have a set of flashcards. If
not, please let me know. Students should be practicing flashcards every night.
I will be giving addition fact tests.
All children should be reading A.R. books on their level. Every student
has taken the STAR test to enable them to make wise selections of books to
read. Please watch the A.R. Project sheet in the Parent Folder. The percentage
of the goal should be going up each week. At the end of the nine weeks,
students should have 100% of their goal. Any other questions that you might
have can probably be answered by reading "What On Earth is A.R.?" This is
found in the Parent Folder immediately after the A.R. Project sheet. One
question that I was asked the other day, "Should my child read every night?"
The answer is a big "YES".
Let's build the foundation for a lifetime of success. We can do it as we
work together as a team: your child, you, and his/her teachers. I really do
want to see that happen.
