This Week in A2

Dear Families,  

A few reminders:

1.  We would appreciate donations of baby wipes for the classroom.  We use these daily to keep our hands clean.  Thank you!

2. There is no school next week.  Happy Thanksgiving!

3. Report Cards are based on end of the year kindergarten standards.  At this time of the year, you should not expect to see a lot of 3's (meeting standard).  Students are working towards end of kindergarten standards.  Also, in your report card envelope (going home on Friday), you will find a list of the 1st 50 high frequency words and a list of fun spelling activities.  Kindergartners are expected to be able to read, write, and spell the top 30 words, but some students want the extra challenge!  :)
