Miscellaneous:

Don't forget to read each night for 20 minutes.

I only had a few students turn in the 5 sentences last week (again). Please work on that this week. It is helping a whole lot. Thank you to those of you that worked on them with your child and sent them back to school. If students continue to not bring their sentence booklets back, I will have to start assigning points to them. The students who do bring them back are making progress in their ability to tell what a sentence is.
