Well, school has gotten off to a great start. I love all of your children. We are all going to have such a fun and exciting year!
You should be receiving your child's first progress report today. If he/she is missing anything, they will have a bright yellow missing assignment's sheet attached to the front of their progress report. If your child does have any missing assignments, he/she will need to have those missing assignment completed and turned in within the next two weeks. Along with the progress report, you will also have a newsletter and a spelling letter. The newsletter will let you know of the events coming up in the next month. The spelling letter will let you know more about our spelling program for this year. You will also be receiving your child's four pretests that he/she has taken. I encourage the students to write the words they missed, on any of the test, 10 times each. If they do this, they can change their score to 100%, if all words are spelled correctly. If your child chooses not to do this, that is their choice and they keep the score they already have. The students are welcome to do this with the fifth grade spelling tests, as well. I do, however, need all four tests turned back to me by the end of September.
We are still covering the same items in each subject area, but just in more depth. Spelling will be changing next week. We will be getting into the fifth grade words and tests will be given on Fridays. Other than that, things are still pretty much the same.
Please make sure to sign the planner coming home each week, with the total reading time minutes. I am getting a lot handed into me, with no parents signatures.
I do appreciate that all of you get signature notes signed and turned back to me, promptly. I can't remember a time when parents have been so efficient.
If you have any questions at any time, feel free to call me, or email me.
Sincerely, Mrs. Little
