Thanks Snigdha and Esha for the weekly update!

The Chapter 3 tests are coming home today. Please look through it with your child.  We start Chapter 4 on Monday.

Don't forget to have your child read at least 20 minutes each night and record it on their reading calendar.

A letter from the PTA is also in the students' folders.

The Parent/Teacher Conference sign-up will be sent out Friday am.

Have a great weekend!

9/14 Update

Thanks to Rishav and Sujoy for the weekly update!

Please make sure that your child is reading and filling out their Reading Log each night. 

The Chapter 1 Math Test was sent home with your child in his or her home folder yesterday. Although we review the test to clear up any misunderstandings and do a math test reflection here in class, please look through these tests with your child and discuss the problems together as well, as there will no longer be a total score on the front page.  

Please note that Picture Day is Wednesday, September 19th. Picture Day forms went home last week.

Over the next few weeks, I will be doing a reading benchmark test with each child. I will share that information with you at conferences in October. 

Make sure to check out Seesaw for our posts on Midwest Geography and Location next week and check out the blog for our Twitter posts!

Have a wonderful weekend!
