BookFair in the Library this week!!!    

Students have several Testing dates coming in March for Reading and Writing. I have some conferences scheduled for those in need. Notices will be attached to the March AVID Homework Agendas. Our next Engineering project with our paper plate will be a shamrock project due on Monday March 9th. Don't miss out Shamrock Shuffle! its this Thursday March 12th 5-6pm!

     Please encourage your child to practice skills printed on the monthly AVID homework agenda. Your child should practice addition and subtraction facts 0-5, counting to 100, letter naming 50 letters in 1 minute, sounding out and reading silly non-sense words, reading 100 sight words (12 each month) and reading sight word booklets daily (writing titles on the book log when reading them at night for homework (20 books a month). Your  child cannot succeed without practice. Encouraging just 10 minutes each evening using the 10 minute reading routine will help your child read fluently. Reading is the most important skill your child will learn to do. Help is appreciated to make sure your child is successful this year.
