Homework (and Update) for Tuesday, April 1

Forgive me for not posting a daily homework message in a very long time.  The internet access (in the on-campus apartment where I live) no longer has very good wifi access.  So, instead of sometimes posting and other times not being able to post, I stopped posting altogether.  However, several of you asked about this at the last Parent Teacher Conference (on Fri., March 28).  So, I will attempt to start posting again.  Forgive me in advance if this is not done daily.

Homework for today (Tuesday, April 1, 2014) is as follows:

Math p. 207-208

Reading  see Log books

Spelling  Pre-Test Tom. on List 30

I am hoping those with pink eye will soon be well and that it will not continue to spread.  :)

Homework for Tues., Feb. 11

Spelling - Pre-Test Tom. List 24

Science - Test Tom. p. 102-135

Reading - Mrs. Lucy's work

Updates:  I left a note on the board for each child to please ask his/her parent/guardian to provide a pencil, an eraser, and a sharpener if he/she does not already have them.  We have students continually requesting to borrow an eraser.  Also, students consistently do not have a pencil.  I think at one point I suggested a pencil pouch, but you as parent/guardian may need to remind your student to have the needed supplies on hand.  We waste valuable class time simply tracking down pencils, erasers, and then sharpening the pencils with 'shared' sharpeners.

Thank you.
