The first quarter ended last Friday. Report cards will be going home on Friday. This is a good time to talk to your child and remind them what is expected of them. They are to always do their best work. They are to work quietly and when work is completed they should be reading or writing in their journal. This quarter points will be deducted if a paper is turned in without a name. When copying board work points will be deducted if not copied correctly. Backward letters and numbers will also be marked as incorrect on reading and math worksheets. Please remind your child of this. Your children should also be using their best handwriting. I will start handing back papers to be redone if the handwriting is unacceptable.
Wednesday we are off to the Pumpkin Patch. I have many drivers. If you have in all of the required information you will be driving. Some of the adults may want to double up. Please be at school by 12:25. We will be leaving the school around 12:40 and will be returning by 2:30. Please remember to send your child's booster seat to school on Wednesday. On Wednesday it is also free dress for $1.00 in order to wear pink. The proceeds go for cancer.
