Week of January 9-14

Happy New Year!   It was a wonderful 2 week break but I am happy to be back in a routine!  I hope you are all feeling the same way.  Stay warm this weekend!
MAP testing is next week; Tuesday is math and Wednesday is reading.  Please make sure your child gets a good breakfast and brings a healthy snack to school. Also, a good night’s sleep is a must!!



Coming up Next Week:
Spelling:   Spelling Menu homework is due on Friday, 1/13. The test will also be on Friday.
