Chapel
offerings until October 8 will go to Food
for Kids. Please bring food items
from the list to help feed hungry children in central Arkansas.
We
have two new student computers, so we are ready to take AR tests in our
classroom. All students need to pass at
least one test each week. You can sign
up to follow your child’s AR progress online.
Your
child’s spelling grade is determined from the combination of the Friday
spelling test, a sentence dictation test, workbook pages, and their spelling in
their daily writing. All of these are
important for spelling success.
