Inside today's Friday Folder is a green workbook called Spotlight. This was one of the tools we used this year for close reading, comparing and contrasting and GMAS prep. We are finished with it for the year. Please feel free to go over it with your child. We did not do the entire book due to time constraints. Feel free to use the unfinished parts for practice this weekend. I am really confident that they are well prepared and ready for Monday!
Midterms
Midterms grade reports went home in Friday folders today. Please be on the lookout for them. Remember that you can always check the portal for the most up-to-date grade report.
Candy Request
We are in need of individually wrapped candy for the candy jar. If you can help out with a bag of candy, I'd appreciate it. I suggest any of the following: Nerds, Smarties, Dum Dums, Jolly Ranchers, or Skittles (please no chocolate or peanut products). Thank you very much!!!
