Quick mentions...

I realize that many students DID NOT take home their yellow language duo tangs for review.  I will make sure they get them tonight for tomorrow's quiz.  Nothing new on this quiz, just maintaining prior learning with weekly quizzes.  Students will be asked to come up with each type of sentence by looking at a picture.  Nouns and the 2 types of nouns will also be included.  

Reminder - Wow test tomorrow.  Please make sure your child writes his/her errors 10 each at the BACK OF THE BOOK in neat columns.  Sometimes students are marked correctly for spelling but are told to write the word 10 times, this is due to letters printed incorrectly.  (Usually the Pp, Yy, Gg, Kk, and Tt.  Students are expected to print a PROPER NOUN with an uppercase letter and COMMON NOUNS with a lowercase letter.  I explained to students that in order to do CURSIVE this year, they have to know how to print properly.  They are all very excited to start cursive!

On another note...I learned from another blogging colleague yesterday, that blog posts IMMEDIATELY post to our school website.  NO DELAY!  So if you go through our school website and click on staff then on my name, you will be connected to my blog.  So, in the case where you think I may have posted but you haven't received any notification in your email, you can always check the school website!
