Parents.

We have completed our spelling tests for the school year. We will be working on word study with no test, our reading book is finished and we will be working on fluency and comprehension with Reader’s Theatre and chapter books.

Please remind your child that school is not over and they need to come to school to learn and not to play. If a child continues to misbehave, field day can be taken away.

End of the year celebration letter will be coming home soon!
