I apparently made a typo Monday Our new math vocabuary word was mispelled on the blog:
T- I- L-I-N-G
I also apologize for not posting the pages of the reteach homework students had last night
RW105, 106, 107 if you would like to review the pages with your child
Human Growth is going well- there is alot of whispering - so be available or alert for questions or comments you may not have had before
I need all forms returned so that I know who is allowed to attend or not. This is the parents' decision. But parents need to fill out even if their son or daughter is not attending. Thanks

Tomorrow is the AR celebration. Students may bring a snack(such as popcorn or chips) to eat individually or for the class to share. I have drinks.
