Monday

Hello all!  We will be wrapping up division this week (hopefully...).  Today, students took an assessment to see what skills they have mostly mastered, and where they still need improvement. We will be rearranging our normal math groups for skill-focused division workshops this week to best meet the needs of our students.

If your child hasn't learned their lines for the play yet, please encourage them to practice!  By Thursday, they will no longer be allowed to use the script.  Also, if you didn't see the pink Buffalo Banner we sent home on Friday, please ask your child about it.  There was a form about what to do with your child in the case of inclement weather.  We need that form returned for each child you have at SGES.

Homework tonight:
Reading Log (don't forget about AR points! Ten-point deadline is 12/18!)
Social Studies Quiz on Thursday
Spelling: study words
