Can you believe it?  We are at the end of the third term!  This week is assessment week, so as always, feel free to come in even if you are not scheduled - the more help we have here, the more assessments can go smoothly!

Please be sure to do the sight word shopping assignment homework with your child ASAP, the point is to have this as a review before sight word assessments on Thursday.  the paper is not due until after the break, but at least getting started now will certainly have some bearing on your child's assessment performance.

Also, please redouble the reading efforts.  We have a little over 9 weeks left, and that is enough time for EACH CHILD to seriously improve reading skills.  This is such an important time in the children's development.  PLEASE be sure to read every day with your child for at least 20 minutes.  About five minutes (at least) of that should be your child reading to you by now, and you taking the rest.  I'll work like crazy here, and if the same level of importance is put on reading at home, we will see amazing growth.  Thank you for your support in this.

Enjoy the break!
