Mrs.
Petrie's class is running out of supplies. Please check
with your child to make sure that he/she has everything
they need. Some students are complaining that they have
lost their colors, color pencils, markers, etc. The classroom
is in need of Kleenex, paper towels, wipes, and hand sanitizer.
If you are able to and wish to donate some of these items
to the class it would be very much appreciated. I thank
you in advance for all of your graciousness and support!

Test Thursday on vocabulary and comprehension letters
in their notebooks each week. Notebooks will are checked
weekly. I look forward each week to reading student responses
on their AR novels. They are also required to keep a reading
log and tally the genres read. Unfortunately some students
are not reading and therefore not writing their required
weekly letter. This notebook will result in a final grade
at the end of the year.
