The children are beginning research on Europe in the coming weeks. As we are researching we will also be having an in-depth study of nonfiction/informative writing. When reading with your child please discuss if the books you are reading are fact (nonfiction) or fantasy (fiction).

When your child is absent it is crucial that an excuse is submitted to the office as soon as possible after the absence. Ideally, a written note sent in and given to the teacher is the easiest way for us to turn these in. If you need to email the excuse we can print it out and turn it in. Please do not send excuses in via the remind app as it is very difficult for us to print these and turn them in. If you receive a reminder to send in excuses for past days please send these in as we will have to send additional reminders. All absences require an excuse. It can be a doctor's note or a simple parent note stating why your child was not at school.

It's time for conferences. Please schedule a time that works for your schedule. We are required to have 3 conferences each year so please take advantage of this opportunity to discuss your child's progress. Thank you!

This link is a google form so that I know who to give the carnation to and what to say on the card. This link is available on the school cash too. Thank you for your assistance.
