Other notes: 
** Students should be reading 15 minutes per night and need to fill out the reading log at home using complete sentences. I can't stress enough how important this homework assignment is. The reading alone helps improve your child's reading fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary. Please make this a priority. 

**Fact Fluency practice will be sent home on a weekly basis.   In order to be fluent in their addition facts, students should be able to do 20 problems in a minute.  We will continue to practice in class, but practice outside the classroom is equally valuable, and will help your child master their facts more quickly.

**A permission slip was sent home on Friday. Please sign and return ASAP. Thank you!

Welcome back! I hope everyone had a relaxing Thanksgiving Break! This is going to be a fast and busy month. We will be participating in the Christmas program on Wednesday, December 18th at St. Patrick's Church. We will need drivers that week to help transport students to and from the Church for rehearsal. Look for details in your child's folder or planner! If you have not returned your child's progress report, please do so as soon as possible. Thank you!
