Daily Sheets need to be signed (consequences will start to be provided for those who neglect this daily)

Math packets are coming home with students. Please jot me a note on your child's daily that you have seen the packet. If you are still in addition and subtraction, feel free to make copies of these and have your child do these over and over again for mastery.  The addition and subtraction do not need to be handed in. A remedial group will need to be started if your child does not improve in these areas over the noon hour.  Multiplication packets do need to be handed in.

We need to be mastering multiplication and division at this time.  If your child is still in addition and subtraction, this is not 3rd grade work.  The state standards suggest that they have addition and subtraction mastered at the end of 2nd grade. They also started multiplication in 2nd grade.

Handwriting sheet: we also used this to review phonics; teach letter formation in cursive, and spelling (due Wed.)

Religion: today is the Baptism of our Lord: the second epiphany
Students also heard the stories (write paragraph) about St. John Basco and St. Ann
(one report a month on the saint that may be your conformation name will be due: one page)

I took grades on last week's 2-2-2. Ask your child how they did. This is calculated with their report card grade!!!

Continue on "apron projects"!  Assist your child is rewriting their drafts if necessary to hand in top notch work. Students reviewed "fancy" notepad paper if they needed it today for their 8 projects. Due about Jan, 20, as we will be making the apron the next week.
