News from the Teacher

Thank you to both parents and students for attending parent/ teacher conferences. Please work with your child to help them achieve the goal they have set for the last 9 weeks of school. This goal may be to improve math facts (practice flashcards), know all sight words (both List A and B), increase reading fluency (by reading aloud nightly), or improving handwriting (practice by writing letters or lists).
