Week of 2/16-2/19

Hello Everyone,

We’re starting off the week with rain! This week is a very special and important week. We will have the WCEA and WASC on campus. Let’s pray that all the hard work that is put in by parents and staff shows them that we are a great and wonderful school that cares about our children. This week we will continue with Long Aa and ch and th digraphs. In comprehension we will review predicting and reality and fantasy. Their animal projects are going home today. Please look over the instructions and due dates. Their first observation is due next Tuesday February 24, 2009. I will be giving one week to complete one observation. Late observations will be graded lower. The final project will be due Tue. 3/17/09. On another note, I just wanted to mention that not many students are turning in their reading logs. These are due no later than Monday, unless we have no school. Please make sure your child turns in their reading log on a weekly basis. There will be no school this Friday 2/20 and Mon. 2/23.
