We have had several students go home with flu-like symptoms. The entire class has been disinfected today ( Nov. 8th) in the hopes of stopping the spread of germs. If you suspect your child is ill or has a fever please keep them at home.

The students have practiced all the sight words and we have built sentences for practice. Thank you to all you parents who have been practicing at home. WAY TO GO!

A New set of sight words will be coming soon. YAY
