Important Dates and/or Reminders:

  • Report cards will be sent out via FreshGrade on or before Friday. If you wish a paper copy, please let me know ASAP.
  • We have space in the computer lab in the morning for Reflex Math. If your child could use some extra practice, our lab is open at 8:00am every morning and is supervised by an EA. Let me know if your child would like to use this time to practice their facts and I can put their name on the list.
  • Lochside Trail walk is on Wednesday, weather permitting. Feel free to join us by signing up here.

Spelling

  • Lesson 12 is a Review Week. No new words this week.
