Our School Bible Fair is going to be postponed until after Spring Break, Friday April 20^th from 6:30-8:00.  However, please still turn in your Creation Day Plate by this Friday or next Monday, March 19^th.

Casual Dress day this Friday is $1 for the top and $1 for the bottom. 

We will have a science landform test on Friday.  Students will bring home a study guide Monday,   

Students will bring home a decodable Reader this week.  Make sure your child reads this to you out loud.  Keep having them read it daily until they can read it fluently.

On Tuesday the students will have a 50 fact subtraction test, it will be timed for

 4½ minutes.  Monday they will bring home a homework sheet with similar problems.  Please have them practice their subtraction math facts.

Baseball reading coupons can be turned in on the Friday’s date on it, or the following Monday.  If your child turns in all four for this month, they will get a free ticket to go see a game at Jimmy John’s Field.

Report cards came home last Friday.  The report is yours to keep. Please sign and return the envelope with your child on Monday.

The weather is expected to go up and down again this week, please be sure your child is prepared to go outside each day for recess.

Students will no longer have the reading homework from their binders.  This month they should read for 10 minutes 4 separate times a week, and return their base coupons to me either on the Friday stated on the coupon, or the following Monday.  If they turn them all in they will get a free ticket for a baseball game at Jimmy John’s Field. There is no writing involved, but students could practice orally retelling you what they read.
