1) Several of my classroom novels are missing! Could you please check at home and send them back. 2) We will have an author visiting our school on May 6th. Eric Walters will be here. I have assigned my students the task of reading at least one of his novels and doing a book report. These must be completed before he arrives. ****Remember the following due dates: - Make book selection by Feb. 22 - Have novel read by April 5 - Presentations begin April 15 3) Could you check with your child to see if he/she has pencils, pens, paper, erasers, etc…? It seems that some students never have what they need to work with. Being prepared for class is a requirement.
