Our class needs;
Diaper wipes and AAA batteries for our Tag Readers
Please check with your child to see how they are holding up on their personal supplies. Some kids are in need of a few items to get through the year. Thanks! 
 
We need all your help with dismissal manager. Some students are having trouble because they do not know their plans for the day. Please do not forget to use the dismissal manager. if at all possible have your plans logged in for the morning report. We are hoping only emergency changes will happen on the afternoon report so that kids have time to discuss plans and get to the correct place.
Please continue to review the words and letters we have learned. Have them practice reading and writing them to build automaticity.
