I hope everyone had a great Labor Day holiday! This week we will be exploring a story about a spider's family, friends, school, and favorite places to play in Diary of a Spider.  We will also continue our writing focus on small moments. Please continue to have your child study the math facts. The tests were much better this past week! Students practiced on Xtramath.com in class; this is a website they can use at home with the passwords I sent out on open house night. Also in math this week, students will make place value houses and there will be  test over place value this Wednesday.
