1. Mrs. Samantha Keene + skeene@tazewell.k12.va.us I have started initialing each student’s planner at the end of the day to ensure they are writing down their homework. I ask that parents also sign or initial the planners each night (with the exception of Fridays—no homework!) to ensure we are all on the same page All spelling assignments are due on Fridays!—please encourage your child not to wait until Thursday night to complete these! Visit my webpage on the Cedar Bluff Elementary website for weekly class updates and assignments (all quizzes and homework will be posted there under calendar)! Every Friday I am giving 10 bonus points on the Reading test for anyone who wears blue and/or white in support of our Richlands Blue Tornados!

You may need to download the font smiley monster so the fonts will work correctly! http://www.kevinandamanda.com/fonts/fr eescrapbookfonts/smiley-monster/http://www.kevinandamanda.com/fonts/fr eescrapbookfonts/smiley-monster/ I got the cute symbols from this font – Pea da lovely damanda doodles– http://kevinandamanda.com/fonts/fontsfor peas/pea-dalovely-damanda-doodles/http://kevinandamanda.com/fonts/fontsfor peas/pea-dalovely-damanda-doodles/ If you teach just Math, Science, & SS- page 1 is for you! If you teach just ELA- page 2 is for you! If you are self contained- Page 1 & 3 may be your best bet and copy them back to back! Before printing, go to save as  change file format to PDF  rename it  hit save. This will allow it to print correctly! Another option is to upload this to your class website so all of the students will have access to this newsletter at home. It can also serve as a study guide for the week! Hope this helps!!
