I would like to thank Erik for giving such a wonderful speech at our Heroes' Night presentation. He made me so proud and I know his family was also! Great job Erik!

Our students will be taking home a progress report this week. Please make sure you review their grades and sign the bottom so the students can return them to me. If you see any grades that are a bit shocking----be assured that they have until October 14th. to improve on them.

Please continue to practice the multiplication table with your child. We will have a test on Friday on multiplication with two digits times one digit.

We will soon have a test on the Northeastern states and capitols. We are also covering the three branches of government and their duties.

We have started our first experiment on Friday. We are testing three types of wraps; baggies, tin foil, and wax paper. We will eventually figure out which one of these has kept our slices of bread the most fresh.

I would like to thank all of my parents for making sure that your children are doing their homework. We have had great success with homework.
