Week of March 23-27 (UPDATED-3/23 @ 2:45pm)

*Update*
Textbook pages are available in the math google classroom folder.  See class code below.

****Update****
  It has come to my attention that a handful of students did not bring their math text book home, they only brought their math work book.  Today's assignment was in the math textbook; tomorrow's assignment is in the work book.  For those of you who do not have a textbook, I believe there is a way that you can access the text book via Math in Focus website. I am waiting to her back from Mr. Dimpsey.  Sorry about the confusion!  I will keep you all updated ASAP!! 

  Hello,
  I hope everybody had a safe, and relaxing weekend.  This week there will be some changes in regards to how work will be turned in moving forward.  Upon learning last week that we will be out of school for an undetermined amount of time I had to adjust my initial plan of turning in assignments.  As far as I can tell this is the easiest way to turn in work.--Use your cell phone to take a picture of your child's completed work and email to me.  This includes Superkids work book pages, and math work book pages.  Students will also be doing work on notebook paper for spelling, social studies, science, and math (text book pages).  However, I will be flexible if you have an alternative way of getting your child's completed assignments to me.  
I have added google classrooms for each subject you will need to use the class codes listed below to access materials for each subject (when assigned)  .  This will help students stay organized.  Make sure your child begins each morning answering the daily question.
We are still in the learning process of online learning. Thank you all for your patience and flexibility as we adjust into these new norms!
