Week of February 27th

We have a slow week on homework again. We're nearing the end of a short unit and we're going to be doing some extra problem solving, so not a lot of homework. However, it is a review week for reading so the spelling words are a bit harder since they are all sight words. You may want to have your child practice spelling a little extra since they won't have to do math homeowork.

Also, if you will not be able to attend your scheduled conference time, please let me know as soon as possible. I need to have conferences completed by the end of this week, so my schedule gets tighter each day. Any advance notice is greatly appreciated.

Reminder: No school for students on Friday, March 2nd or Monday, March 5th.

Important Dates This Week:
Homework: 7.5 on Monday (fact triangles)
