Reminders:
- Please make sure your child has completed their math assignment each day. Students usually get time in class to work on their assignment, if not it becomes homework.
- Check out your child's planner to see what they are learning each day!
- Want to know how your child is doing at school? Look at the Pirate Privilege chart located at the front of their planner. This is where letters are taken for behavior, incomplete/late work, and tardiness.

If you feel your student is struggling on math concepts, or you wish for them to have extra practice, have them get on Prodigy. Log-in username and passwords were sent out last week to each student. If you are not familiar with Prodigy, it is an interactive game that most students enjoy to play that helps students practice math concepts! Click here to go to the website.
DO NOT FORGET - Students should be getting on Reflex Math at least 3 times a week until they achieve 100 percent fluency. Once they reach 100 percent fluency, they only have to get on once a week. Click here to go to the website.
ELA
Students currently have 8 more school days to take quizzes that go towards helping them meet their 2nd quarter AR goal. I went over their numbers with students on Wednesday this week, so each student should know where they stand right now, and just how far they need to go to meet their goal.
In writing we are finishing our second 3rd person narrative for 2nd quarter. Students are doing a great job and getting very creative with their stories. We cannot wait to share our work with you!
