This Monday marks the first day of the fourth quarter. Can you believe it?!?!? Where has the time gone? Time certainly does fly when you are having fun!
With the start of this new quarter, please be sure to go through your child's weekly work sent home each Monday. Going through these papers is the best way to monitor your child's weekly progress and to avoid any surprises come report card time. The second way to keep up is through Teacher Ease. I try to update the grades every week, but every other week is my regular pattern. This is why I say going through the weekly packet is the best way to know how your child is doing on their tests, quizzes and practice work. Thank you!
Please check this week's Curriculum Update listed below. Don't forget, this week's mass will be on Friday, not Monday.
