Reading test, don't forget!
Tomorrow is our weekly reading test over the story "Fury of Fire" in our Storyworks magazine. If your child forgets their Storyworks, they don't get to take their reading test, which will result in a zero as their grade! The children are well aware of this.

HWPP - What in the world is that???
I've decided to start giving HWPP's in science class! What in the world is that? Well, it stands for Homework Prepared Points & it's really quite simple! If your child has their homework completed & with them in class, they will receive their 1 point for being prepared! If your child does not have their homework completed OR your child does not bring it with them to class, they will receive a zero for NOT being prepared! They can earn 1 point or a zero, it is their choice.
