Hi All,
This week is Conference Week.  You should have received a confirmation from me as to the time and date of your conference via "kid mail" or, in some cases, phone or email.  If there is an issue about the schedule, please contact me immediately, as I still have a few free times. Because of conferences, the kids will be dismissed at 12:20 every day, and there is no Afterschool Program.

For this week's Homework Packet, I have included a study guide on government instead of the usual spelling words.  The kids should review this information for a test scheduled on Friday.  In math, we are moving on from addition to subtraction (including regrouping--"borrowing").  Many kids struggle with this concept and may need additional supervision and support when completing their math homework. Please scan your child's nightly math homework to be sure they are practicing this concept correctly, as it will be frustrating for all if they practice misconceptions.

Have a great week,
Carroll Mayer
