September News

We have completed the first few weeks of school, beginning of the year assessments, and review of third grade skills.  Therefore, we are ready to move forward to the challenging work this year.  It is very important to keep up with the homework and for parents to check their child's accountability sheet. 

Reading logs are very important to your child's future success.  Why???  Simple.... school and life require that students be fluent readers and have a large vocabulary.  Parents please take all opportunities to expand your child's vocabulary in English and Spanish too.  Have your child read the sentences they write telling about what they have just read.  The skills needed to correctly write sentences, capitalizing proper nouns, using exact verbs, and reading comprehension are all being practiced. 

School menus have been sent home along with some fundraising questionaires.  If you have any suggestions or would like to volunteer at the school please contact the office.

A BIG THANK YOU!!!! to the parents who have sent in paper towels, wipes for cleaning desks, and tissues.  We use them often and appreciate your help in having them available for the students to use.
