Dear Parents and Guardians,

Thanks for coming to Open House. If you were not able to come I sent home a copy of what we discussed along with the grading parameters.

The students are settling in nicely. We have started reading and math groups. We will start intervention at 8:30 to 9:00 daily for reading. This week we will do a book report in class and students will start doing book reports to show accountability of what they are reading at home and or at school.

In math we are working on adding and subtracting two and three digit numbers with and without regrouping. Please continue to work on addition or subtraction facts.

In Science we are learning about plants. The students are growing lima bean seeds. In Social Studies we ordered a Social Studies paper which connects to the Alabama course. I am very excited to use this tool to promote Social Studies.

Please look at the new tab at the top of the page. I added a spelling, language, and writing tab. I will post the new words and skills each week.


We will have our first PTA Meeting September 11, 2012 in the cafeteria. Please plan to attend. The PTA is a wonderful organization that supports our school in many ways. If you have not joined, please do.

Have a great week. If you have any concerns please contact me by e-mail, note in the agenda, or contact the school. My e-mail address is troberts@jefcoed.com.

Sincerely,

Tina Roberts
