- Look for pictures for the reading theme wall (Due on Tuesday).
- Review the homework information on the back of the planner (blue paper in STAR folder).

Summer Homework
August 3, 2008 by James Hendricks
In the coming weeks, you will be receiving a homework assignment from our school theme committee. It is extremely important for your child to finish this assignment and bring it in on the first day of school.
Homework Until the End of the School Year
June 10, 2008 by James Hendricks
Well, we have finally made it to the last homework assignment of the school year. For the next two weeks (June 9 through June 20), students have been given a pack of math logic games to play at home. Each night, students should pick a new game and play it for ten to fifteen minutes. No other homework is required. This means that students are not required to read for 20 minutes, practice math facts, or practice spelling words. This time of the year with the heat and the number of after school activities can prove difficult for homework time. This gives students the opportunity to work on their own schedule.
Homework Until June 5, 2008
May 25, 2008 by James Hendricks
Last week, students were assigned a long-term project where they were asked to research a famous Connecticut person and complete a project on that individual.
As part of the project, a 2 liter soda bottle is needed because students will be building a head on top of the soda bottle so that it can be displayed. It is important that there is some sand in the bottom of the soda bottle; it makes it easier for it to remain standing while it is on display.
If your child needs assistance with the project and you have questions, please contact me as soon as you are able. I can provide some materials, if they are needed.
