Dear Families,

    I hope you have had a wonderful Fall weekend despite the gloomy weather! We have a bit of a strange schedule this week as Friday is an early dismissal day at school. In addition, we will have our first T.A.G. (Traveling Art Gallery) presentation on Wednesday this week.

    This is just a reminder that students do need to be reading their Accelerated Reader book which is due by October 31st! Students will read the book and then take an AR test related to the book to test for comprehension. At the beginning of the year, we require just one novel to be read per month! This is a great way for students to practice their fluency at home! Students are certainly welcome to read more than one AR book a month if they so desire! The more reading the better!

    In addition, I have been reminding students to bring home their math fact level books to practice at home! Students are welcome to use the online games on my website or study with multiplication flashcards as well! Any practice is good practice!

    Our Theme for this upcoming month is kindness. We are focusing on not thinking about ourselves but complimenting others, being friendly to all of our peers and learning to carry out acts of kindness.

Warmly,

Miss Amoscato
