THE FINAL PUSH IS ON!!
We are back to our routine and pushing for our big finish! Its hard to believe that we only have 9 weeks left in this school year. This is the time of year that I start to get a little concerned. I feel like we still have a lot to do, but the days are racing by. Please help me keep your child focused on finishing strong!
We have made a few changes in our spelling work. Students will now take more responsibility for the work that they do. They are given a sheet with 16 options for activities. Each week they will choose 4 to do. We will be holding them to a high standard for the quality of the work as well. I believe that it is a natural progression in preparing them for the more challenging work and the requirement for more independence coming in 2nd grade.
