9-9 Homework & Stuff

Homework:

 Both Reading and Spelling was sent home today and will be due next Friday. Please make sure that your child underlines where they find each answer to the comprehension questions.  They must also put the paragraph number by the question to show what paragraph they found it in.  Remember, complete sentences are required.  Many students are not capitalizing their sentences and putting punctuation at the end. Please have them look over it for this as this is a 3rd grade standard and a part of the report card.

There will be a spelling test next Friday. Math will also come home each night.

*Performing Arts Permissions came home.  Please sign and return as soon as possible. If you are able to make donation, please include in the envelope.
