Wednesday's Homework

Math - Finish up pages 9+10. Hand it in tomorrow.

* Due to the heat, out of uniform tomorrow and Friday.

* I told the class that AR will start tomorrow. If the entire book is read, they will sign up on the white board. I will read a book to the class on Friday and we will all go down to the computer lab and take the test to get used to how the AR process works, like logging in, typing the book's name, and understanding their score.

* If you have an older child at this school, you can access the test results. If not, information will be given to you next Wednesday at Back to School Night.

* We did a project that you will see next Wednesday with our Reading Buddies, Mrs. Oh's 7th grade class. Ask who your child was paired with!
