Questions of the week:

Friday - It is Elbows Off the Table Day. Tell me two more things that show good table manners.

In math we will be working on money combinations and addition and subtraction facts.

Some are having trouble with spelling. Please go over the words with your child at home. They have practice at school, but it doesn't seem to be enough.

There have been questions about the blanket letter that was sent home about reading help. Please sign this letter. It doesn't mean that your child is having trouble with reading. Sometimes a child will have a problem with one reading skill (i.e. rhyming). This will allow the reading specialist or myself to work with your child during scheduled intervention time. Most times a few minutes of remediation can fix the problem right away.

We will be going on a field trip to Greer on Oct. 7. Please watch for a permission slip and a letter with the trip information

Remember that Friday is an Early Release for the Homecoming parade.

Have a great week.
