Shoes: Due to the mud and wet conditions, it would be great if students could bring an extra pair of shoes to school to change into after recess. Currently, they are leaving their muddy shoes in the hallway and walking around in socks in the classroom. 


Math: Last week, we completed Unit 4/lessons 8 - 12. This week, we will be working on unit 4/lessons 13 - 17. Extra practice at home using the IXL textbook will be helpful to reinforce these essential standards, especially for those who struggle. Additional IM resources(the workbook we use) can be found HERE.
