Homework & Study Guide Dates 2/27-3/05 **Homework assignments and important dates are at the bottom of the page.
**This year, we will continue to use the Reading Street series. In class, students will have whole group and small group instruction as well as center time. On this page, you will find the different skills that are covered for the week and the homework that is assigned each night. There will also be a spot for other important dates. We are implementing the 6 day reading plan again this year. Test dates will vary from week to week. I will keep you informed of test dates through weebly, monthly calendar, and weekly emails. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! My email is [email protected].
