February 22 Parent Letter

Parents,

We will have no special tests this week. Friday will be our Spelling and Reading Tests, as usual. Science Assessment will be Thursday, as usual.


We are doing great in the AR Reading Challenge. Second grade has slipped to 3rd place, which is still awesome (76 schools reporting!) Each student counts, so keep up the good work. ( 2-3 books at night and 1-2 in class would be great!) Third graders moved up to 3rd place (75 schools reporting!) Way to go. They read a total of 27.7 points, so they earned their pizza and brownies. Pizza and brownies will be on Thursday (for third grade). My goal for 3rd graders is 30 points this week. As a class, we passed 155 tests this week. This was the biggest week yet. Great job students AND parents.


In math, third grade will add 9 as a factor, so start on those 9 multiplication cards. Second graders add 2 as a factor. Second grade parents: Keep working on those 0, 1, and 2 Multiplication Tables. All the work you do now will pay off big time later, I promise.


Continue to read through your child’s part for our Lutheran School Week play. The more they practice at home, the better our practices at school will be.


I’m still making small changes to the new schedule, but so far I’m pleased with how it’s going.
