Math Other News Our Newsletter will be online. We WILL NOT be sending a paper copy home. This will be the ONLY one. Please check the Plain Local Website to see our Newsletter. It will be posted every Friday. You may reach us by phone or by e-mail. If you would like to practice math facts with your child you may check out this website: mathfactcafe.com. In order to help your child we need your help. Please have your child read everyday. Ask them questions about what they have read. Have them read aloud to you. Having them listen to you read will help them to hear what a good reader sounds like.

Each Friday 3 lucky children will have the opportunity to choose something out of the treasure box. • You will be able to find your child’s spelling list on line each week. It will be on the teacher website under Spelling List. We will NOT be sending home a paper copy of the list except for this week. • Please make sure your child has a book in their bookbag so they have something to ready while waiting to go home.
