Homework for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th for March 13 to 17.

Dear Parents,
         This week the  second, third and fourth will be completing a module (or domain) assessment based on the work they have been doing in class and these will be counted as quizzes.  The second  grade will be taking a Social Quiz as well on Chapter 8 (please see below for a guideline).  I was not able to see the third grade at all on Friday due to a meeting followed by Stations of the Cross; therefore work has been rescheduled and the Religion quiz will be given on Monday!
          Dismissal on Monday is at 12:00.  On Thursday I will NOT be at school since it is my turn to attend the Grade level meeting all teachers are  required to attend. On Friday school is closed. I WILL BE ASSIGNING HOMEWORK ON THURSDAY SO PLEASE CHECK BACK.  I strongly recommend that all students work on IXL and I -Ready since the ELA State Exam is about 10 days away!
