I will not be in this week and have a sub. Please be sure to send notes and not emails if you need to contact the teacher. Remind your child of the expectations when I'm not in the room. On Wednesday if your child wants to bring in a small snack and a beverage for our afternoon party they can. Over Christmas vacation please be sure they are spending time reading and also working on their multiplication flashcards. It's amazing to see the difference between those students who do a little something in regards to academics versus those students who take the 12 days off and do nothing. Enjoy the time with your child and we'll see them back on January 4th, 2016. No spelling list this week.

We will perform at 7:00 pm on Dec.17th. Our current Unit in Math is all about multiplication. I have given each students cards which they need to master by the end of third grade. Quiz your child daily until they have them mastered. I have added some really nice websites to our resource tab. Please have your child work on the keyboarding site. This is a great way to learn to type. Lesson 12 for Reading and Spelling next week. This week begins Trimester #2. Let's get off to a good start with good study habits.

If you have questions please give me a call. We talked together today how we can not change the past but focus on the future.

We’re closing in on the end of Unit 5 in Math. The test is slated for this week. The spelling list should be written in your child’s agenda.
