Our class has been working hard in a lot of areas, and it’s great to see them working hard at home too! Keep up the good work! *I just wanted to give a shout-out to the parents that have been helping us in our classroom! You’re all amazing, thank you so much! Reading Tips/Tricks Take time to read comic strips together. Share favorites from your own childhood and have your child put his favorites on the fridge. Read them aloud, and often -- repetition is a great way to build reading skills. Soon, he’ll love looking forward to the “Sunday funnies” each week! Student Highlight Lucy J. Lucy is an awesome friend! She is a great reader and nice to others! Dates to remember… Meet the Masters: Nov. 19 Thanksgiving Break: Nov. 27-29
