Hello All,

Welcome back!  This week we will attempt to get back into our regular routines.  Students will bring home a Homework packet that will include spelling, a reading log, and multiplication practice.  At this point, your child should be reviewing multiplication facts daily, unless they are already proficient. This week's spelling list is homophones.  Please remind your child to memorize which meaning is associated with which spelling; simply knowing how to spell a word will not be sufficient on this test.

In addition, students must choose a "Famous American" for their upcoming research project, and locate a biography about that person. A book must be chosen by Tuesday, January 22.  Information about the appropriate candidates for research, and the book report that will be a portion of this project, was sent home just prior to the vacation.  If your child's handout has been misplaced, please have him or her request a second copy.

Have a great week, and stay warm!
Carroll Mayer
