IT'S READING CHALLENGE TIME!
Your child should have brought home a form like you see below. Please encourage your child to read, read, read!
See the forms for details! (Each grade level has slightly different reading length expectations.)
This week in math, students worked on writing numerals, as well as accurate counting by playing the game Roll and Record. Pairs took turns rolling dice, counting the number of dots, and tracing the corresponding numeral. #starryinspire #misdinspire
