We will have Fall Break October 21st through October 25th.  There will be no homework sent home on Wednesday.  I do not believe in giving homework over a break.  The students still need to return last week's homework on Wednesday.  Mrs. Barton will still test everyone over their word lists on Wednesday as well.

Just a reminder that parent conferences are going on this week Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.  If you misplaced your times or need to change something, please let me know right away.  I am looking forward to seeing everyone this week.

Attendance is very important for your child's success in school.  Please read through the attendance policy in the student handbook.  If your child is going to be late, have to leave early, or will be absent from school, a parent must call or email the teacher and Michelle in the office.  If you do not email or call, the tardy or absence is considered unexcused.  

Spelling: shut, ship, brush, that, them, bath, at, from, had, like

 Written spelling test will be given on Friday.

Please make sure your child returns the reading book the next day so we can use it in class.  There will be a comprehension test over this story on Friday.
