~~~~~~ Happy New Year!  Welcome back! ~~~~~~

Here are a few things to remember as we continue our school year: 

• Every student should have a King James Bible at school. We have a memory verse quiz every Friday, beginning January 10th. 
• We are constantly short on pencils, so please send some in soon.  We will be learning/practicing cursive penmanship and sharp pencils are important.  
• Over the next two weeks, we will be doing a habitat diorama with partners. Each group will need to coordinate gathering supplies. Every group needs a shoebox, but other supplies will depend on which habitat they choose to create. We will decide on Monday or Tuesday. 
•  Every class has tests and quizzes regularly. Please ask your child what they should be studying. They should have a good idea of what is coming up if they are listening in class and staying up on assignments.   
• Please check the blog often and encourage your child to study and read a little every day to keep up. 

This week's schedule:

We will begin a new book report book.  It will be a biography, and I will provide the book by Wednesday.  They should read a chapter each evening to complete about 5 chapters a week.
