Learning focus:
Our units are structured differently this year, please notice that we will continue focusing on the some of the same skills for multiple weeks.
ELA: For the next couple of weeks we are focusing on "author's opinion and author's purpose, writing an introduction, and pronouns.
UFLI Assessments are given weekly. This test will assess the weekly spelling/phonics pattern. Students are encouraged to study nightly, practice writing words, and make flashcards with the weekly pattern to help master the skill. You can find the pattern for each week on the study guide.

If your child needs additional Math practice you can visit www.mathfactcafe.com or www.themathworksheetsite.com.

TVCS offers a service called tutor.com. This website allows students to log in and work with a tutor if they need additional assistance on an assignment after hours.
Agendas: Agendas will go home nightly and returned to school the next day. Please check and sign agendas everyday. This is where parents can find important information daily regarding assignments and behavior. Please also share how your child will be going home daily. If there is a transportation change after your child has arrived to school, please contact the front office.
Lunch: Lunch is at 11:20-11:45 am daily.
We have snack daily. Please send in a healthy snack and water bottle for your child daily.
Homework: Homework will be sent home on an as needed basis.
*In order for students to receive full credit for homework, the work must be completed in its entirety. Please review your child's homework with them.
Media Center: We visit the library once a week. Students are able to check out books each week. Please ensure your child is reading at home each night. Please also ensure students bring their library books back to school with them each day.
