Good Afternoon & Happy Monday!
I hope everyone had a nice weekend. It seems the weather is finally starting to get a little warmer, which we are all loving! : )
Here’s some important info for this week ahead:
1) Our new spelling words went home taped to the front of the homework folders, we are now on Short Vowel “I” word families. We are incorporating two word families this week “ig” and “it”. The spelling homework that is in folders is due back on Thursday.
2) We added three new popcorn words to our books today (us, jump, down). If your child did not bring in their book today, please send it in tomorrow.
3) We have Library this Thursday so please be sure to return books.
4) Thursday is also the 8th grade baked potato sale, if you are interested in ordering please send back the order form, which can be found online on the Friday Folder.
5) The St. Patrick’s Day TAG Day that was originally this Friday has now been rescheduled to NEXT Tuesday March 19th. On the 19th we ask everyone to wear Green/St. Patty’s theme attire and send in $1 for the 8th grade class.
