HOMEBASE LANGUAGE ARTS
We are still trying to get to a perfect day with having our planners signed.  Good things (like extra recess) will happen when we have all planners signed.....

A TRACK/B TRACK MATH
Today we did some "housekeeping" with returned work and the like.  Your progress report which was handed out last Thursday should have been signed by a parent and returned to me.  About 10 students also need to re-do last week's "balancing" subtraction assignment.  We also took a 5 minute addition fact drill.  A Track had nearly all students finish while B Track was only about half.  
HOMEWORK: IF you were not able to complete 90+ problems in 5 minutes please click here for a list of online games that will help you memorize your facts.  It's up to you to get caught up with your facts!

D TRACK MATH
We talked about supplies and staying organized and then took our initial baseline timings on basic facts.  More information will be coming on this over the upcoming week.
HOMEWORK: First day packet.
