Disguise a Turkey
Your child will be bringing home a turkey to disguise to save from Thanksgiving dinner. The turkey can be disguised as anything. Please help you child with this project and return the turkey to school no later than THIS Friday, Nov. 21st. They will be doing a creative writing piece Friday afternoon using their turkey. 

NEW BLOG SECTION: Sight Words
I have added a "Sight Words" section to the left side of the blog. Please make sure you quiz your child on these words each week.

Yearbooks:
Yearbooks are on sale from now until December 18th. They must be pre-ordered and a form went home with your child last week. Please send those orders in as soon as possible.

We will continue to place orders for AZK Spirit Wear throughout the year, but if you would like to have shirts or sweatshirts for holiday presents orders must be received by Nov. 21st. to guarantee holiday delivery.

Homework Help:
Please go over your child's homework with them daily. I have several students who are not completing their homework, several struggling with spelling words, and several struggling with Math facts. Please go over each of these with your child every night and listen to them read out loud. The work at home with parents is one of the biggest keys to success for your child. The students who are working at home nightly with parents are making the greatest gains in class.
